is an incredible reel I have it and the truth that the quality and finish of it is awesome very good!

[jandhtackle]

You are welcome. We have the reel in stock if you want. It would go nicely with a Shimano Terez Waxwing rod.

[jandhtackle]

You can use it but it's all about line capacity. If it has enough line capacity for you them it will work.

I have a 400b and I bottom fish with a 2oz and never had a problem.

[mrjaredlovesmilk]

I have a 200GTB and I use it for spinnerbaits/buzzbaits, never had a more smooth reel.

[jandhtackle]

Yes we do but it is usually best to sell your reel online on ebay or craigslist. You will get more money that you will from us.

would you recommend this reel for inshore saltwater fishing?

[krismoore]

thank you... you have helped me make a good choice for my set up thank you so much

[jandhtackle]

No. Closest reel would be a shimano trinidad but they are much more money.

Where can I get a power handle for this reel or the Calcutta 200 gtb?

[doggmansnapperdude]

Man I just bought a brand new one never used one before and I turned the screws out that it said and I can’t get into the side plate to adjust the brakes I don’t get it I replace all the bearings in my Metanium and core but can’t get into the side plate on this one

[krismoore]

would you recommend this reel for swimbaits for calico bass for southern california

[Whitearrow]

what are your thoughts on this Calcutta 200b vs 200gtb? are the additional bearings and the wiffle spool worth the cost? or would they be just more maintenance?

[kevinhuang]

Can I fish porgy and sea bass with this reel?

[jandhtackle]

It's a little small but you can probably get away with it.

[kylefatone]
