Restored mine back to working order again Two reels and two seasons.... been thru 2 levelwinds and 3 drags... just wondering if others had similar problems.

But WOW... apparently not many! I may have to rethink my position on the issue given the results of this poll. (OK, please shoot me... sounds way too much like the crap we hear from from the presidential front-runners)

Jerry (J&L Brown), I guess you and I were the only ones in the free world who bought the crappy ones.

My dad and brother and I all have two each. My dad has had drag issues with his, but the four that my brother and I have are holding up very well. I really like the handle and the click drag.

Doc,

Since I started this thread I suppose I should let you know my experience with the 600 on the Kenai. No problems whatsoever. However, I decided that the 500LC was a better reel for the way I fish and I picked a couple of them up. So far so good. Both the 600 and 500LC were big improvements over the TR200's.....
