## Description

desertcart.com : South Bend Microlight Mini Ultralight Spincast Reel : Spincasting Fishing Reels : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Pretty awesome for a cheap little reel. - I take this backpacking. I'll fly fish whenever possible, but on some of these mountain lakes sometimes you gotta have a spin rod to get out to where the fish are. The reel that came on my little collapsible Eagle Claw was crap - it was also open-style and had a huge angled handle, so it was awkward as heck to pack with other stuff. This little guy is perfectly compact. It fits in so easily with all my gear and weighs nothing. The fact that it was cheap too, it's no big deal if it gets busted up. Casts surprisingly far, though the retrieve isn't super-smooth. I wouldn't use this as a primary means of reeling, but it would be a pretty handy back-up for a lot of people. Oh... and it catches fish too.
Review: Still might work - I bought this to use on my Crappie rod. First trip out I got into some Crappie and after I set the hook and start to reel it in it would not reel the line in. Sometimes I could put tinction on the line and it would catch and then let go again. I went with a different reel. I might pull it back out of the drawer and try another line.
