I dont like the way they cast.. I throw it hard and it seems like it hardly goes out but it does reel in smooth.. I rather pay the little extra money and get a c3...

I have owned three of them for the past 5 years, Never had a problem. They cast great, low maintenance and low price. For the price you cant beat it. Catch them in the spring when they drop the price to 49.99. Htrow it on a 10 or 11 foot eagle claw rod and you have a combo for about 80.00.
