Product reviews of Lew's Laser XL 60 4.2:1 Casting Reel

Chris Blankenship : Smooth like melted butter

Very smooth casting and retrieving is like spreading soft butter. For the price I love it. Made these my channel cat reels paired with ugly stixs. I would buy these reels again. Should be durable..

Corbyn fields : Very much recommend this reel

I have had many baitcasters like this. I would definitely recommend this reel. It performs perfectly. I love this reel

Amazon Customer : Cast control knob came off

Cast control knob came off and can't get parts from lews and bad customer service

Nicole : Good deal

Bought it and slapped it on a big cat fever rod and went fishing reel casted well and handled all the fish I caught. Haven't used it for very long but so far I am happy

WaterZombie : Best round reel for under $100

I was skeptical about getting a round reel that's not an Abu but this thing will sling some lead just as far as my abus with the breaks taken out and it's crazy smooth I'm definitely ordering more

david bruce : Lews

Works great

Bub : Won’t hold up

I would give a zero if I could when I got it it was all scratched up and look like it had been used hard save ur money and just buy a abu Garcia 6500 c for 60 more bucks this is junk

Corbyn fields : Very much recommend this reel

I have had many baitcasters like this. I would definitely recommend this reel. It performs perfectly. I love this reel

kevin howze : Pos

I think it’s broke. It don’t cast like my zebco. Line keeps getting messed up

Michael Solis : Great reel for the price.

Smooth casting, good line capacity, and it looks good.

Dan O : For the price not bad..if your looking for casting distance,avoid at all cost

Not bad so far..not a smooth caster,but it gets the job done...Update: After using for a few months my thoughts are ..As mentioned before the casting is terrible,i use a 8 ounce weight & big chunk of cut bait for catfishing and well you would think it would cast a country mile,but it doesnt,its loud feels like its going to come apart mid cast..just feels cheap..i would recommend this as a boat reel where casting is not as important...think im gonna replace this with the kastking 60 R

kevin howze : Pos

I think it’s broke. It don’t cast like my zebco. Line keeps getting messed up

1 : Great reel for the money!!!

Use this on my company’s catfish rod and love it. Boated a lot of blue cats with this little reel and the one pictured was the biggest so far, 71lbs. Handle this fish great.

david bruce : Lews

Works great

Tmk : Nice

Really like this. Great for the money. Paired well with whisker seeker rod.

Chris Blankenship : Smooth like melted butter

Very smooth casting and retrieving is like spreading soft butter. For the price I love it. Made these my channel cat reels paired with ugly stixs. I would buy these reels again. Should be durable..
