Pros:	Fast retrieve, dependable, smooth drag
Cons:	Plastic covers

Excellent for King Mackerel fishing where a fast retrieve and lots of line capacity are needed. It's start drag system is smooth and holds up well to the screaming runs of smoker size kings. I have six of them on my boat and haven't ahd a problem with any of them in three seasons so far. In my opinion they are good bang for the buck.
