Abu Garcia Cardinal X Allround Spinning Reel, Fishing Free Spool Freshwater Reel for Predator Lure Fishing - Trout, Perch, Pike, Salmon, Robust and lightweight, Black and Red Aluminium Multiple Sizes

Great little reel which I bought to replace one that came as a package deal with a rod. Runs smoothly and is easy to spool up, it’s lightweight and solid. Smooth action on the retrieve and the size means it packs down into my tackle box.

This was discounted to 20 for size 3000 exclusively used for bass fishing. It's noisy with my braid. I'm not sure if it's the line rub resonating because of the roller not working but it's noisy when reeling in . Nice and light and the action smooth but that's about It . ------- Update since last review to 5 stars. Long term over summer, it's a great reel. Simple yet strong and very light. I have the 3k and probably the best spinning reel I've owned. The initial noise problems was my braid on the rings. It got submerged so I had to strip and clean but it was dry inside . Easy so strip and maintain and simple construction therefore should last years. I've bought 2 so I can keep a spare spool and have a spare body for parts.

I bought the 3000 size, and overall for £27 it's a smooth reel that feels very nice. The drag adjusts nicely and has a good click, not too loud or too quiet. The anti-reverse stops without any slack in the handle and there's no loose play on the handle spindle so it feels well engineered. Pity about the line lay, it loads heavier to the back, so you can't get the line close to the top spool edge. It won't matter on 20 gram plus lures as they'll have plenty of weight to fly out there, but on light lures it could affect casting a little, but I can't see it being a major issue if you load it as far as it will go. The line lay is the reason for 4 stars but overall there's worse feeling reels out there for the price.

A small reel but appears decent quality. Haven’t used it yet do will review fuller in time.

Great reel for the price .

Well made reels which should last a long time.

Decent spinning reel for the money but make sure you wash it after every use as it rusts in salt water

Very well made, at the price honestly its a great starter to intermediate spinning reel, looks a treat as well, and you can feel its well made. Very smooth, and great size, doesnt feel heavy, while still feels quality.

bon produit

Nice one

Sehr gute Rolle und läuft sehr sauber top

Es un excelente reel para pesca con señuelo o cucharas. Tiene antireverse infinito con lo que lo hace mucho mas profesional, a pesar de que es gama de entrada. En mi caso lo utilizo con una caña de 2.1 metros de spinning del decathlon, de las mas baratas, ya que el reel que traía no servia para nada. Muy contento con el nuevo setup! Lo voy a comprar nuevamente para quedar bien con un familiar, ya que al que le gusta la pesca, siempre le viene bien un nuevo reel.

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo Pagato circa 20€ . Piccolo Mulinello adatto a pesche non gravose ideale per la trota laghetto o la passata. A mio giudizio non adatto per pesca alle carpe o grossi barbi , parliamo sempre di un mulinello di fascia economica ma tutto sommato le finiture sono buone , viene fornito con una bobina in alluminio, il corpo e in plastica Ottimo per principianti o per chi come me lo monterà su una canna da usare sporadicamente per la pesca a cavedani trote e simili Allego foto con peso e capacità bobina
