I picked up my second one of these yesterday. What a piece of kit. Very smooth, nice retrieval, good capacity for braid. OK there are cheaper reels, you can pick one up anywhere from €80 to €90, but you get a quality built reel for the money. Would like to see a spare spool but I have enough Exage 4000's with spare spools if I really need to change to a different line. I mainly fish 20Ib braid so I dont change that often anyway. Its somewhere between a 4000 and 3000 in size, just perfect if you ask me. I paired mine with with a bushwacker 10-40 and the balance is spot on.
