Hi I have Shakespeare agility surf reel, its ok I have had alot of fish using it, Thornies, Bass, Hounds etc... The only thing the build quality isnt great, I did have another shaky that broke at the stem, and this one the screws on bail arm dont really hold tight, and line roller traps line ocassional as there is gap. I wouldnt buy another shakespeare reel however I do like there rods though. I have Akios scora 100 and Shimano ultegra XSC 10000 and both excellent for few quid extra, I have 2 Penn rampage Surf 15'9 good rods.
