Summer and Centron Spinning Reels, 12 +1 BB Light Weight & Ultra Smooth Reel for Ice/Summer 3000/1000 Fishing Reel by QINGLER

You can't beat this reel for the price. I have 3. I love this reel for trout and crappie. The last one I got to replace a Shimano. Very smooth drag. The first one I have had for 2 years. Bought it for trout fishing in Alaska. It's still going strong.

I brought two of these reels to replace the Summer series i am used to buying. I spooled them with 60 lb braid from another brand and it worked great . caught chubs and yellow tails

Looks to be a good purchase, was surprised for the cost it is a very nice reel, and a nice-looking reel have not used fishing yet, but put on a rod and lined with 15lb line. Reel has a smooth action and the bail trips Easly.

I just got this today so I am just now taking this out of the box and looking at it. It is a very nice looking reel and seems to be very solid. The action is extremely smooth and I like the handle. I’ll be putting this on my ultralight rod tomorrow, so time will tell after a handful of uses, but I expect it to be very nice.

it’s $11 and catches fish. feels way better after putting some oil in the gears.

Nice looking, casts well, & low noise. It was smooth working at first. But after several hours of fishing a creek, I noticed that reeling in started getting a little rough and grainy here and there. A few days later I opened the reel (no easy task BTW) and discovered the internal gears were bone dry. After some cleaning and oiling it was reeling smoothly again. Please note that its not unusual for some new reels to be unlubricated, both budget & higher priced. Can't speak on durability since I've only used it once. Nitpicks aside, I feel that this reel would be a good choice for beginners & casual anglers wanting a ultralight spinning reel at an ultralight price.

Excellent first time using it drag was smooth and worked great. Landed 14lb blue catfish with 6lb line no problem at all! Feels very well made and the folding handle is a huge plus!

I have not had a chance to fish with it yet. It feels smooth while winding it but there's a clicking noise that I'm not sure why it is doing it. Switching the handle side was easy but tightening it was difficult and I had to use a pair of pliers to get it tightened and it destroyed the finish on the tightening cap. It’s light and creates a nice balance on my 5'6" pole. Between the reel and the pole, it should have the sensitivity to detect strikes with the small rooster tail lures that I use. I occasionally use small Johnson spin beetles and it should work with these as well. I will update the review after I use it.

Schöne kleine Rolle funktioniert gut ordentlich aufgebaut.
