SeaknightRapid Saltwater Spinning Reel, 4.7:1,6.2:1 High Speed, Max Drag 33Lbs, Smooth Fresh and Saltwater Fishing Reel

My first 2 reviews deleted due to 100 character limitUPDATE....I have upgraded my rating. Have been using this sub 40$ reel for couple months now. Not kidding, paired with my Gator tail, its my go to all around salt water rig. Still is smooth as glass. I really dont believe it myself, but thinking of pairing a new one with a St Croix MOJO 9 ft MM Fast. Think it would be a perfect rig.UPDATE... I own two of these. I admit i have changed my surf fishing rig to Bait Runners. But both reels i own work perfect. Advice. if you are not a person that can trouble shoot an issue with a fishing reel. Buy a 150$ reel. if you spend less, might need some work on your end. I have read negative reviews on this product. If you cant check proper drag washer order. Very common issue with lower priced reels. Dont buy one. I have pushed these reels to the point I believed it would break, burn up drag. And still works. Pictures i posted are reel...lol Funny right....You not gonna get Shamino Saragosa feel at $40.Update. 5/2021 I now own 2 Sea Knight 6000 reals. If Sea Knight made a 6000 bait runner. Shamino would be in trouble. Both show ZERO corrosion. Work and look new. One a little smother than other. This is the reel that I keep in my truck on 6ft pole 24/7. Works perfect. My opinion, its the best non Bait Runner sub 40$ reel on market. HEY SEA KNIGHT / MAKE A BAIT RUNNER / WILL OWN MARKIT. G

I normally use baitcasters but I needed a spinning reel to cast lighter lures that baitcasters have difficulty casting. Originally, I was looking at the pflueger presidential reel but didn't want to spend that much on a reel i may not use too often. I opted for the Seaknight Rapid 2000 H spinning reel for my light weight setup. The line guide has a nice design to it, allowing the line to easily spool after casting.No line twist, and the distance I can cast with a 5 inch worm is pretty good for spinning reel. I have it spooled with 10 lb braided line and a 2/0 hook. It took me a little bit to get accurate but now i have the release timing down to allow for more accurate cast. Another thing about this reel that was appealing is the higher gear ratio and smooth spinning from the ball bearings. The drag had no issues pulling in a largemouth bass, small one however, but that's why i got the 2000 size reel.Before spooling any line on it, I opened up the reel, it was already greased, which saved me from doing it. I definitely recommend the reel over other store bought ones for the price, you are getting more.

Bought this reel for bass fishing mainly. Have been using it for about a month now. From the start I was very surprised by the quality. Not only does it look great with my rod but the quality feels great. I'm very rough with my reels since I fish mainly from the bank and I fish about 2 to 3 times a week. Did some bed fishing as soon as I got it. I got the 2000 model. Biggest bass I've caught with it has been 3.25 pounds I believe from bed fishing. The bass gave me a great fight, it felt too easy with the reel, very smooth when fish is on. Would definitely recommend for someone not looking to break the bank for a good quality reel. Not giving it a 5 star review quite yet since I've only had it for about a month.

Great quality for the price. Have used it for a year now with out the issue. I will be buying more

I bought this reel last spring but never used it until yesterday. I paired it with an appropriate weight Kast King rod!Yesterday I went fishing at a fishing pier in the Gulf of Mexico and I hooked a monster fish!! I was using a size 1 hook, a short wire leader, a weight , and a pin fish.I fought this fish for 30 minutes fully expecting to have my line broken or worse. Oh yeah I was using braided line fortunately.My point is this reel and rod amazed me in how well it handled this huge fish!! Drag worked perfectly, fish pulled an out line, I pulled line back in, etc. until I finally got it up to the bottom of the pier where I learned I had just caught a huge sting ray!!I am very impressed with this rod and reel for the quality at a reasonable price!!!!Tight lines!!

The reel looks good snd feel good but not durable at all. Locked and broke at the first time use it when fight with not big fish. Customer service is bad. Sent the message snd no reply.

Not sure what's going on with this, but after not using this reel for a few months there seemed to be no drag available regardless of how much I tensioned. This resolved itself over the course of an hour or so, but overall, the tension isn't great.

Good
