i would think so but if i was older and had money id bid on it just to have a chance that it isnt a rip off.

That reel is not going to hold up to big fish.JMO.

BUt hasanyone heard anything before?
As Team OSO said its almost worth the fun of seeing if it blows up...

Junk knock-off, it looks like. thickness of crank arm is half that of lugs
leading me to beleive cheap steel. also looks like a tiburon frame &
jigging master handle

It sure did

Actually I did check out a similar reel in China but as I said the quality and the drag will not hold up to big fish.
Spend your money on better quality products. JMO

what was the one that Ragman had?? it was a knockoff of something, TXSeadog and Minnows had it at Bass Pro and the drag was very sticky under a heavy load... I actually had it in my possesion for a short time... pretty on the outside, but was a timebomb waiting for a 70# yellowfin...

Not me SKR. You may be thinking of that reel Brian's talking about.

I do have a 50W (private-label brand Coleman's from Oregon) that hasn't seen water yet. I forgot to take it on the last trip, but it will get tested on the next trip.

it looks just like coleman's......

gotta coleman 50W too...... no complaints yet, but i don't use it for marlin or tournaments......... (got better schtuff fer that)

it has brought in some nice'uns tho........ even with the drag cranked down pretty good on 80# mono, it's stayed smooth (so far)
