Hey @whitechin57 Thanks so much for tuning in and the comment... yeah You'll see me using this reel in a lot of my videos... Very good rod. The only thing is I just wish it was smoother, I think to lower cost they downgraded the bearings in the reel. I'm actually thinking of servicing the reel and replacing the bearings and see if that helps with gears and smoothness. What did you think about the smoothness of the reel? either way, incredibly good alternative to the shimano trinidad or ocea jigger. (in my opinion).

Thanks so much Mczook... I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! yeah biggest factor for me on Maxel's are the smoothness compared to shimano, but they definitiley get the job done... I like the reels! Thanks so much again, for tuning in and for the nice comments! I look forward to bringing you more reel reviews!!

Thanks for watching @dangareau.... Holy Cow your right!!! wow that thing is up to $350.00... huh... I can't imagine why that reel would be so much right now, and so better priced just a year ago. Thanks for the update. I had no idea the price went up like that.

I love diawa reels! The fuego and ballistic is one of my favorites! Wow!!! You bought a certate?? You must really love diawa, those are pricey! I'm gonna do an episode on how I can save you HUGE money on reel purchases!

Heyyyyy thanks so much for watching. Great to hear from you and I'm so glad you get value out of these videos! Thanks so much for all your support!

Niceeeee!!!! Thanks for watching Christopher... I'm so glad you enjoyed the video... let me know what you think of the reel (if/when you get it). I hope you enjoy.

@@Johnnyfishalot Hey, Johnny. Looks like my Hybrid is on it's way... I'm also very stoked, my Ocean Heaven P80 will be here in 3 days!!! I'll let you know what I think about the Hybrid.
