i bought an eon 3600 last year when they came out and i really like it, ive had no problems with it. the thumb release is crisp and the drag is smooth on mine. since last fall ive landed a couple dozen silvers and a summer run steelie with it and it still acts like it is fresh out of the box. maybe you guys got a bum reel??
