Hey Andrew,
The results I have gotten on this reel from various forums has been mixed, depending on who you ask and what part of the world they are from. Some guys love these reels some guys wouldnt give them the time of day. i purshased one a couple weeks ago for a friend gave it a good inspection and thought that this reel had great potential despite hearing numerous criticism's.
I am not one to base my actions on the opinions of others, although I do welcome the input, I decided to purchase a cabo 80 to test for myself. The price on these reels is a definite attraction when compared to the stellas, saltigas, van staals.
My thoughts are that if you use a piece of tackle within its limitations and care for it properly you shouldn't have any issues with it.
My goal is to find out what the limitations of the Cabo 80 are.
