I was pretty happy with this reel at first. However after only a few months of use the rotor already has a groove in it from the fishing line and it is rusting and I only fish in freshwater. Meaning that groove will inflict severe wear on the line and possibly even cut the line when fighting A fish. Obviously the rotors are not chromed or hardened as the well made spincast reels from the 60s and 70s were. And these Brutus reels are way to expensive to be a disposable one year reel.
Plus I contacted the manufacturer and Even though my reel is less than a year old they would not honor the 1 year warranty because I didn't order it from Kastking.
