no offense, and i dont represent Quantum

Its all about Budget...if you want to spend sub $300 on a reel, they are great reels. But I would strongly disagree with most of whats being said based on my personal use. I had 4 Quantum Cabo 60's. I thought and still do that the reel performed great. I used 2 of them with the other two sitting on a shelf

I know what quality is I buy all quality gear becuase I fish HARD, with that said the 2 Quantum Cabo's that I used my son and I killed tarpon to 100lbs, small yellowfins, blackfins, blacktip sharks etc. Most of the tarpon guides in the boca grande pass area of Florida use those reels in the 60 and 80 size

Gunsmoke is right in one respect, fish the gear appropriate for the cause. I wouldnt use those spinners for tuna just because of line capacity. Inshore species or blackfin that reel is more than enough and for $200 dollars is worth it

If you want to catch big fish all the time without troubles I would suggest Stella
