Sougayilang Fishing reels Light Weight Saltwater Spinning Reel - 39.5 LB Carbon Fiber Drag,12+1 BB Ultra Smooth All Aluminum Inshore Reel

Got this for my husband because he needed a new reel, The casting is smooth like butter! It was a great price as well, the size and weight are perfect for the new pole he also got and he really like the green and black it looks great on his new green fishing pole! It definitely out performs his old reel the we spent close to $60 bucks on. Will definitely order from here again when needed.

I really like mine. I got the 2000. I really like pflueger reels, but this one gives my pfluegers a run for the money. Easy to cast. Reels really smooth. Think I'm going to buy another one.

I upgraded my gear Lews and Penn bought this to see how it compares and was surprised it’s not a bad reel. Had a problem with Lews and their CS $ucks but sougayilang resolved the issue with their product stood behind it and replaced it no questions asked so yes it’s cheap but I’d buy two of theirs before I buy another Lews reel. Outstanding customer service only reason for 4 stars is I haven’t used it enough to test it out.

Great reel for the price. I take it to the salt and rinse it and so far so good.

Reel is really not bad considering the price. Operation is smooth. I think the less than stellar choice of materials is compensated for with more ball bearings. When in doubt, "add more ball bearings "!Out of the box the line wrapped very unevenly on the spool. I actually fixed the issue by eliminating one of the ball bearings and the little plastic washer under the spool, effectively making it an 11+1 ball bearing Reel! Works for me now for the price I paid.

Works great so far

I recieved my 8 - 4000 sized reels. My intent was to do a total replacement with new reels. First impressions were good. Aesthetically pleasing, fast at 6+ gear ratio, light, and well balance on my high end rods. I started spooling the first reel and notice that a keeper screw for the main shaft nut was completey stripped, and cross threaded to boot. I checked all. 5 of 8 the heads of the screw was stripped. Obviously no Quality Control. I should have stopped there...1) Next, while spooling the first reel, I noticed that with any pressure, while reeling, the crank had a very jerky tension to it. You have to let up. for fishing, it will be nothing more than a line retriever, and all power will come from pumping the rod. this reel has zero power, before the gears want to eat themselves up. I should have stopped, but new things are fun.2) By the third reel, I realized this was what you get, it wasnt a fluke. Additionally the third reel must have a slight bend in the shaft, because at one point about every 6 turns, it gets very hard to reel, even with no line pressure at all. The main shaft is very thin diameter, like less than 1/8" perhaps? It is of poor quality, and obviously not tempered. and NOT stainless.3) Im stopping at 3, with over 900 yards of 20 lb Power Pro invested. The metals on these reels will not hold up to freezing environments, let alone salt. No way should these be considered a salt water investment.If i can save my line (its worth much more than these reels), I will return this product. Very Very dissapointed. They are not worth $5, let alone $30.

Good replacement real it's actually my favorite even above my more expensive reals
