The Fin-Nor LT80 Lethal Spinning Reel has a 4.9:1 gear ratio and is rated to 40-pounds max drag. The MegaShield finish is a multi-layer corrosion protection that can stand up to the harshest environmental conditions to keep the reel looking great for a long time. All FinNor Lethal spinning reels feature a no-slip braid band on the spool that allows you to tie braided line directly to the spool without the need for mono backing. Since 1933, Fin-Nor has built world-class tackle to meet the demands of the most experienced anglers in the world. Innovations in the use of new materials and new designs, created specifically for the new, more successful fishing techniques, have given anglers more opportunities to boat the fish of a lifetime.

Awesome Reel!!!
What more do I need to say? The pictures speak louder than words. Weights of these Catfish pictured are between 25.5lb and 19lbSmooth as silk, strong, beautiful, long casting,HEAVY AS HECK!!I have it mounted on a Rippin Lips SuperCat Series 8' Heavy Spinning rod. This is a beast of a combination. Did I mention Heavy!,lol. I fish from the bank, *Tightline* in custom rod holders,so the weight is not an issue for me.I had it spooled with 80lb Cortland Master Braid (yellow) then changed to 50lb Power Pro (white)It did great with the 80lb, just a bit heavy.Being a ZEBCO,it was an easy purchase for me

Solid reel and the drag is smooth as silk...SO impressive for the $$
AMAZING reel for the money. Got this as my go to reel for hunting poon (that's tarpon, by the way) off Anna Maria Island and paired it with a 8' Shimano Terramar Inshore extra heavy spinning rod. I spooled it up with 65 lb braid. I didn't get to target tarpon much last year as I moved here in August and missed season. So far I have managed to wrangle a 5 foot spinner shark and a ray that was just under 4 feet across out of the surf with this rod. If you've ever caught a large ray, you know how hard they are to pull in and off the bottom. It wasn't easy but he didn't stand a chance. The reel is solid, the drag is smooth as silk. I can't say enough good about this reel, especially for the money. In it's price range, nothing even comes close. I liked it so much that I ended up buying two LT40s and an LT25 that I use inshore. I'm a Fin-Nor user for LIFE!

10-15 lb bull reds does them all with superior aplomb. I don't think about the reel
Smooth, predictable, reliable, very competent. Adjectives can't describe it. Small 6 inch surf perch to 30 pound stripers, 50 lb bat rays, 10-15 lb bull reds does them all with superior aplomb. I don't think about the reel and I don't worry about the reel failing. Does what everyone who fishes wishes their reel would do. Stay hidden, out of thought and second thought. Operates without hesitation or opinion like a model wife should do. This one achieves easily. Why didn't I buy earlier...30 pounds of drag and nearly waterproof Fin-Nor has produced a model mid-sized reel. Good looking and easily adjustable.

Powerful and smooth reel
i wanted a spinning reel for kayak fishing offshore on the Texas gulf coast. I looked at the Fin Nor offshore reel but it was so big and clunky that I decided against it. I found the Lt-60 and it looked like the right size. I have used it to catch several 40 inch kingfish and jack fish with 20 lb mono. The drag is powerful and had no problem when these fish would strip line off the reel. ( is there a better sound than when a fish strikes and starts ripping line off your reel?)I like this reel so much I plan to buy another one...or two.

WOW
Outstanding reel. Although not heavy, it is slightly on the bulkier side. Takes a little more than 400 yards of 50lb braid. Used it once and caught grouper, snapper, mackerel and kingfish. Largest fish I caught with the reel was a 4 foot rainbow runner and the drag was way too powerful for the fish.ProsSuperb value for money, best in class. I dont think there is a better reel for the money.Built quality excellent.The drags have serious stopping power. Caught a kindfish with it and the drags performed very well.Possibly the best greased reel I have seen out of the box.ConsLine lay needs to be improved.Could do with a touch of smoothness, but for the price no complaints.

Automatic bail!!!
I have used it to catch halibut, snag salmon on snag season, and catch king salmon in Alaska. I bought the fin-nor 100 but the bail was manual, the 80 is not that is the best for snagging any salmon. I on my 3rd one, I let kids use my pool, don't do that.

Great reel for your money.
Reel is smooth and feels sturdy. I paired mine with a 9’ surf rod and it’s perfect. I accidentally dunk it in the water when i stumbled because of the surf but it still performed as advertised. I will update this review after a few weeks and see how salt water affected it (i rinsed it with fresh water after each use).

Muy bueno! Suave y buen peso.
Muy buen producto, escelente material, no es pesado para el cuerpo que tiene, y es muy suave al girarlo. El unico detalle a considerar es que el carrete no enreda el hilo uniformemente como otros carretes lo hacen, hay que tener cuidado al elegir el nivel de llenado que va a tener el carrete (respecto al hilo) porque pueden tener problemas de enredamientos si se pasan, yo traigo linea de 40 lb castking pro, esa linea es un poco gruesa, habria que ver si con una sufix 832 no hay problema al ser mucho mas delgada. Este carrete lo he utilizado en una caña okuma salina de 14 pies y en una jansen Cabo Caliber de 13 pies, sin problemas y muy comodo en las dos cañas.

Strong and heavy
I am super impressed with my LT60. It is the largest reel I've used. It doesn't feel as buttery-smooth as a Spinfisher V, but nearly as smooth as a Battle II. It is a different style in the fact it feels more purpose-built. It isn't silent and isn't buttery smooth, but it is still decent at both. It feels ridiculously strong. I put a complete 300yd spool of 30lb PowerPro braid and still fit a 50lb 10ft fluoro leader with room to spare. The drag seems very strong, but I haven't had the pleasure of testing it on anything monstrous yet. I tested this while fishing in Cuba for 10 days and it held up well. I had no intention of ever submerging it, but I had a couple rogue waves change my mind. I rinsed it in fresh water after every day and it still looks and works like knew (minus some scratches from sitting on lava rock). So far so good. I still can't believe it was only a hundred dollars.

Buen carrete, pero se puede mejorar su aspecto
Buen freno, funcionamiento suave, hasta ahora solo ha enfrentado troncos y basura en el mar, pero ha podido con ellos sin problema. Cuando agarre un pez, actualizo el comentario. Las 4 estrellas es por que la calidad de manufactura no se ve coincidente con el precio.

Excelente producto
por ahora todo muy bien, su drag es muy bueno y aparte salió suertudo! Lo tengo en una caña de 12’ para surf y lo cambio ocasionalmente a una caña de troleo y su desempeño en ambos casos es excelente

Buena compra
Es un buen equipo con un buen drag y un peso todavia aceptable para la practica del jigging. La razón de mis 4 estrellas es por la calidad de la manivela ya que en mi opinión se siente algo débil. Espero que resista el día que tenga que "pelear" con un buen bicho.

Ya estrenado y bien trabajado
Bonito diseño, buen freno de arrastre, buena respuesta al jalón del pez y muy comodo de la manivela amplia.Estoy muy satisfecho hasta el momento con el carrete 👍

Buen carrete, excelente calidad/precio
Me gustó mucho la construcción del carrete, que aunque tiene un sistema simple es fuerte y confiable, lo recomiendo ampliamente, además no es muy pesado en comparación con otros carretes del mismo tamaño.
