How many bearings does the reel have and what ratio is it
1507773
3 A-RB stainless ball bearings + 1 A-RB roller bearing. I just bought 2, one for a friend, but I have not had the chance to use it yet. Sure seems like a nice reel though. Looking forward to the first time out with it. I bought the Shimano Calcutta 400B for light to medium duty salt water fishing i.e. sheephead, calico bass, and what ever else bites at or under twenty lbs.

I think 12# is a bit large for a spinning reel maybe 10#. But if you want to try it size 4000 would be good. Buy the way they are a great reel. Hope this helps. Craig

I've got 5 rods in my "Panfish" case. It all depends on the rod lengths and the "style" of reel mounted on a particular rod.

I own 3 of the 30's and find them perfect for medium-light applications (trolling for crappies, small mouth bass etc) this reel is well made and has a smooth drag system... however limited spool capacity ! I think the 40 or 50 would be a better choice for you.

This size 60 with lever drag is a great reel for yellow tail and tuna up to 50 lbs. It holds more line and has a better drag than the Jigmaster. It is a nice reel for the price. I run a small charter operation and have 6 of these Squall reels in various sizes. They are used by both novice and experienced anglers with no issues.

I have had it for 3 months now and so far it's held up to everything i have put it through. I did write a crappy review on this because i had to finish assembling it on arrival. but i got over it, and the reel is fine. just secure the inlet line swivel piece with a ziptie or something because if you have excess hose leading up to the reel its gonna try and wrap up your excess due to the tolerances being so tight. good news is it doesn't leak. Hope this helps, have a good day

Item model number: CZ-12CS That is what the add says. I caught a 55lb king on mine and many other fish. It is my favorite reel. It has a quick retrieve and a great drag and mine has not rusted like most of my other deep sea reels. I would buy another one.

Im running 12 off of 2 supplies. For full reels, figure on 6A each. The problem with supplying less is that most supplies will not self-limit. So the supplies will keep shutting down after a few minutes. I used computer power supplies which worked well though one is a bit loud. Hope this helps.

I am not one to return items, but I was so unsatisfied with this reel that I returned it. I wouldn't suggest that anyone purchase that reel. I don't know how many feet it holds.

I own a 300 from my early days. It has a plastic spool and is still working today. I bought the 300C for my son in law and used it when I visited last month. I has a metal spool and can be loaded with line by machine at the store. It has the same great feel of my original 40 year old reel, smooth casts and retrives well.

This is my rule of thumb so to speak, never put a bearing in a wheel hub that you do not have some form of the old bearing retainer, so that you match the ball bearing count"in this instance 7, there are also 6 ,8 and 9 count balls in axles of this kind which i assume has a 3/8 axle? , i eould purchase this bearing only if youve matched up the ball count and even inside and outside diameter of the retainer itself.

I have several of these reels and use them for most of my fishing needs...I would use either the 8 or 10 pound reel...Not much difference on the reel-They are a tough breed.....Good fishing..

Yes, the S in the model indicates spinning reel. However, if this is the same as mine it is actually a 4 piece rod. I bought it for a travel rod or for areas that I have to walk a ways into. Have caught salmon on it and really like the rod.

It has 7 but thats only on the frame of the machine but its built solid so i dont see any problem there. The problem is how they say lifetime warranty on the rods but doesn't include normal wear and tear use is what I have the issue with. I upgraded to 310lb and its not even close to that anymore. They want me to pay for a whole new powerstack rod system which cost about $325 half of what the machine cost. That is what I find ridiculous and no one mentioned that after the rods wear out the machine is pretty much useless unless you buy new rods. I hope this helps in making your decision. I recommend going with machine weights because those weights never wear out. Good luck. It has 7 but thats only on the frame of the machine but its built solid so i dont see any problem there.

40lb power pro is exactly what I have on mine(fierce 4000). I bought the 150yd spool and filled the reel. excellent combination.
