braid is spot on, spooled nicely,sits nice on the reel and nice and limp,I've put a shovkleader on it and it's knotted spot on

How much braid did you take off for the shock leader or didn't you bother ?

In reply to Post #17
no need,it's spooled slightly under the lip,the amount for the drop and 6 turns on the reel won't affect it

Received mine yesterday and appears to be an awesome but of kit.
Unbelievable value for money 👍

used mine this weekend, what an amazing reel for the money @29.99, just ordered another one for my 12ft spod rod

How quick is the drag on it. Would it be a worthy marker reel?

In reply to Post #22
I would have to check tbh,

I'm waiting...

🤣 I'm about 40 miles away from the reel at the minute

It's fairly quick to be honest perfect for marking and spombing.
Used mine on Friday and was a pleasure to use.The braid was great got no wind knots and got the bait out no problem still blanked thou🤣

Just received my okuma spod reel. First impressions very good. Can't go wrong for £29
