Q:

Would this be a good reel for catfishing

Answer: No sir. This reel is just ok. If you load it too much it will not work long term. Mine lasted about 2 months before it started squeaking and rattling. I did accidentally hook a 6 foot long gar pike and that was the end of my reel.

Answer: It is a high speed reel. Kind of a waste for catfishing, but you could still use it.

Q:

Can you spool this with 8lb fluorocarbon line on a light action ugly stik?

Answer: I’m using 12 lb line and it’s spools really nice

Answer: I don't see why you could not.

Q:

It's called the "Sea"Knight, can I assume it'll hold up pretty well for flounder in saltwater?

Answer: SeaKnight Falcon baitcasting fishing reel can be used in freshwater, not a saltwater reel.

Answer: I don't know. I use

Answer: Yes

Q:

Is this reel saltwater rated?

Answer: I do not believe it is

Answer: it is not saltwater rated but I use mine in the surf all the time. just make sure you dont drop it in the sand, rinse it off with freshwater when done, and lightly grease the innards from time to time. I JUST caught a 20lb butterfly ray in the surf earlier this week and it was a fun fight. very smooth drag, to the point I had to look down to make sure the butterfly ray was actually taking line out. But I take pretty good care of the reel. Now you may have to give it a good cleaning more often than a sealed reel but it is MUCH cheaper than all sealed reels.

Answer: No

Q:

How lite of a lure will it cast?

Answer: I sent it back. Not well made at all in my opinion

Answer: Nice for the price

Q:

Is this reel saltwater rated?

Answer: I do not believe it is

But I take pretty good care of the reel. Now you may have to give it a good cleaning more often than a sealed reel but it is MUCH cheaper than all sealed reels.

Answer: No

Q:

Where does this ship from?

Answer: China

Q:

Can you spool 50 lb braid

Answer: you can spool pretty much any lb line on there. the thing is the higher the test line the less line you get. but if you're using 50lb braid on here I dunno if the drag system is made to fish the type of fish that you'd use 50lb test on.

Answer: You can,but I wouldn't use anything over 30 lb. braid on it.

Answer: Yes I just caught a 24 inch snakehead with this reel and I use 65 lb power pro braid .

Answer: Yes

Q:

Does your handle have some “play”? My reels handle does not seem like it is a tight fit.

Answer: I haven't experienced any "play" at all in my handle.

Q:

Is this reel Braid Ready?

Answer: I spooled mine with 30 lb. braid right out of the box with no troubles.

Answer: Yes. I loaded mine up with Seagar braid.

Q:

Does it come with instructions how to change the spool?

Answer: It’s been so long since I ordered this that I truthfully cannot remember, however, Seaknighr is an outstanding company that is very customer friendly. If you email them or find them on Facebook or Instagram I assure you that they will respond quickly, with an answer to your question. This reel is still one of my all time favorites and I promise you you will not regret purchasing it. Since purchasing this reel I have directed most all of my fishing gear need to sea knight due to there extremely durable and nice looking products! Good luck! And once again, I highly recommend you purchasing this reel.

Answer: Yes,it comes with complete illustrated instructions in English.

Answer: Yes

Q:

It's called the "Sea"Knight, can I assume it'll hold up pretty well for flounder in saltwater?

Answer: SeaKnight Falcon baitcasting fishing reel can be used in freshwater, not a saltwater reel.

Answer: I don't know. I use

Answer: Yes

Q:

This is practically the same reel as the fishband gh150, with that said, where is the gh100 version with the shallow spool?

Answer:

Answer: Currently Seaknight does not make a shallow spool due to lack of demand, should the demand increase, we will look into producing one,.......

Daniel G. Avina : Affordable and Great quality

If your looking to compare this reel? Only comparison personally give would be the Shimano Curado. This reel, especially for this price, is a STEAL! Fits in your hand like a sword to a samurai. Throw on some braided line and rip the lips of whatever you latch onto! This reel will be smooth cast after cast! Affordable and dependable! Fantastic reel at an affordable price!

PIEJO : Great value

Very good value for the money.I honestly bought this reel as I wanted to try out the brand,and wanted to see if for $40 it would be any good.Well it was a pleasant surprise.
The reel is very well built,solid no rattle and very clean.Has a really good braking system and it's very smooth and quiet. Very quiet reel as well when casting.The drag is good and I had no issues with it.It casts really good and far,I can throw a weightless gym dinger,or trick worm with ease and no backlashes.It casts a hollow body frog like nothing.And when you set that hook you got eem.All in all very nice reel and I wouldn't hesit5to buy another.

Dakota Addair : Couldn't be happier!

I got a chance to test my reel right after I received it this morning. The gearing on this reel is extremely smooth. The retrieval is fast and casts very smoothly without any hesitation. It is also very sleek looking and fits on the pole and in your hands nicely all for an extremely fair price. Couldn't be happier with this product and am looking forward to Future purchases with this company.

Kindle Customer : Good looking reel

Jay Wofford : Good Reel!

Good little reel for the money! It had a little whine to it when casting at first but after about 50 casts that whent away.

shawn schwartzenberger : one of my favorites

i now have 4 baitcasters, and this ranks at the top, i have to say its pretty smooth, and casts very far. definitely would recomend

joe walters : Spool blew up on 1st fish

I fish a lot of events and figured I would try this since it had so many good reviews. The 1st fish I caught this was a 3 1/2lb largemouth and it broke the spoil to where it would just free spin and would not reel. The reel was smooth until the 1st fish lol then it blew apart . I had high expectations but this did not meet them. I will just keep using my daiwa tatulas :-)

heath : Comparable to Shimano Curado and Shimano Chronarch

I ordered this reel on a Wednesday night, it was in my mailbox Thursday afternoon. Immediately out of the box it was light, and tight, meaning it didn't rattle. I own both a Shimano Curado, and a Shimano Chronarch. This reel easily competes with them for only a fraction of the price. Smooth castability! I can cast this reel well over 100 feet. The retrieve is smooth as well. Also, I had it dialed in by the tenth cast. It's not easy to backlash, but it is possible until you make your adjustments. Only suggestion I have is, when you unbox it, go ahead and apply extra reel grease. You'll need it. Overall, incredible quality for an awesome price. Highly recommend.

Jimmy Tran : Great product

Very nice reel for the money. Perform very well and cast as far as my high end reels.

Paul : Excellent

Cast smooth and far. Settings are easy to calibrate. No problems. Well made. Easy for flipping and pitching. Love it

Viorel BOLD : Excellent!

Superb product, runs like a charm!

Michael saevang : Very affordable

Very nice reel really smooth can’t beat the price.

Gary Kuebler : Take time and practice.

With practice, I might be able to cast without the backlash.

Nt Xiong : Needs improvement

It’s smooth at first but took it out the whole day to fish and it broke, lines were getting snagged and nested. Product is not durable.

esbm308 : Very Smooth Reel

I bought this reel for bait finesse system fishing using the large diameter spool , I miss read the description thinking it has both magnetic and mechanical braking system so you can really fine tune the reel to throw very light jigs , well all it has is magnetic . It took a while but was able to throw 1/8 jig with out backlashing not as far as I hope but
as I use it maybe it will free up and do better. Other that that its very smooth plenty of drag works great. Landed a nice 4 lb plus spotted bass with no complaints .It's not a $250 Daiwa but still a good real .

AmazonCustomer : The best bang for your buck

A lot of bang for your buck a great real for those on a budget! Thank you for letting me try out the reel. I will be recommending this product to others!
