I've had the lx for 1.5yr.s using it for jigging . The handle
baring failed after 1 year but was fixed by avet for free. I heard they first came out with barings from china, they have resolved this issue. I have only landed tuna to 50lb. on this reel and I believe drag would become an issue on 90lb. fish, but possible. as far as reel lugs I installed an aftermarket bracket but took it off as it wasn't necessary with new rod ( sea magic dragon fly 200grm. )
