What is the difference between this reels compared to the other reels?

Answer: I don't believe there is much difference in reels like this in the $40 price range as far what they are suppose to do. This reel is built solid and performs flawlessly. I bought a second one due to the price and quality.

Answer: It's just a good reel for the money--I have two. Has sensitive controls.

Answer: There is not any published information which would allow you to make a comparison. I personally can’t look at an item or picture to determine features. I rely on the maker to provide specifications and details. Sorry but no information, no good to me.

Anyone using this for surf fishing? Can it handle up to 6oz sinker?

Product reviews of Calamus X2 Baitcasting Reel, 6.7oz Compact Design Fishing Reel, Micro-Adjustable Magnetic Brakes, 5+1 Double-Shielded Stainless-Steel BB, 7.2:1 Gear Ratio, Aluminum Spool

patrick kaler : Same as KastKing Royal Legend 2

Very nice reel, very smooth and casts very well, easy to set up if you are familiar with baitcasters. I took it apart and cleaned oiled and greased it before using and internally it is the same as my KastKing Royal Legend 2 which has been excellent. Another good thing is it cost $20.00 less than the KastKing which makes it a screamin hot deal. Oh and #2 is already on the way!

Racin-Jasun : Highly recommend this!

If your familiar with Kastking, you won't be disappointed. I can only compare it to the Kastking Crixus baitcaster reel, and on every level it's just as good and it's even lighter. Very smooth, and the magnetic setting wheel was a brilliant idea, it is very convenient. For this price point, it honestly competes to any mid range baitcasters, and beats any super cheap reels. I would say it would be a great purchase for a beginner, but I'm 100% sure even vet anglers will enjoy this, it don't feel cheap, super solid quite reel.

Amazon Customer : Works great! Good quality.

Very easy to adjust, works great. New to bait-casting! Good starter

Silas : Nice

Great reel looks super nice and good quality build to it.

jeff howard : great reel

very good reel for the price

GetOutTheHouseGoFish : Got the Calamus x2 on sale; great reel for the price; GetOutTheHouseGoFish!

Got the reel with a 60% off coupon! wow what a bargain.
Going to be using this reel in saltwater since it has double shielded SS BB.
A great reel to get to practice too if your just learning how to use a baitcaster.

Yevgeniy : Butter smooth. Left-handed Calamus X2.

Just got this reel in the mail, and am already impressed with how smooth it is out of the box. The packaging was great, as well as the breakdown of all of the components of the reel in a handy graph. I am looking forward to using it and may update the review once I have tested it on the water.

Silas : Nice

Great reel looks super nice and good quality build to it.

For the price, especially on sale, this reel is a no-brainer. Smooth, casts well.

Kelli : Excellent starter reel

Perfect size. Knobs feel tactile and sturdy. Very smooth retrieval. Feels great in hand.

No instructional information provided and no customer service support. No website available for information .

Isaias G. : Value baitcaster

Very smooth seems similar to my kastking Spartacus reel which I love to use. Can't wait to take this one to the lake.

andrea sisk : Not worth half the price.

I received this product on Friday. Shipping was great as for the reason for the one star only. I spooled the Reel and took it out today for a test drive. Here are the list if issues this product has.
1) They spent more on the box than the Reel it's self
2) After a cast, when you engage the reel it will not reel in the line.
3) After your cast and the lure hits the water and you engage the spool, you have to reach down and pull line out before it will start to spool the line in.
4) They have 3 Social Media sites listed on the Calamus Loyalty Program Card. Facebook ( Can't find the page ) Youtube - ( Can't find the page ) Instagram - ( Found page with 1 Post for Sunglasses, 24 Followers, 2 following the page.
5) No e-mail address on any paperwork to contact the company.

Would the seller please forward any information on this products Builder.
