fritts crankbait reel review

carolina-rig-01 · 11-03-08, 01:25 AM

finally got to use my new crankbait reel today and so far i really like it. i have her on a 7' medium action falcon and it is just the perfect rod and reel for handling fish on crankbaits. the reel casted very well once i got the brakes dialed in and had very little fatigue from dragging deep diving crankbaits around all day. i know there were several peole on here who were wanting to hear what i thought of this reel so i thought i would give you all my opinion. i have only got to use it once so far but so far so good.

I won't throw a DD-22 or Series 5 on anything else. GREAT deep cranking reel.

When I must winch large crankles (which I'd prefer not to do,) it's a Curado 200BravoFive for me. Of course, that reel is on loan to the guy who bounced his D.Fritters (and another rig as well,) off the deck of his bote a couple of weeks ago. He likes it. I may not see it for a while.
