Overall:
Ipaid 97 quid for mine two seasons ago and it has never let me down on either the river or stillwater,a great performer at all times whether you are a novice or professional in my opinion.

'EXCELLENT 'PIN FOR THE MONEY'

Strengths:
Incredibly smooth and free running. Well made and good looking as well! Good solid action ratchet.

Weaknesses:
No line guard or drag mechanism. Not important to me as I don't like either on a centrepin.

Overall:
Excellent centrepin. Trotted a 3BB Balsa down a swim no trouble at all. A real pleasure to use.

Very good VFM when compared to the more expensive "named" 'pins (of which I have a couple).

Build quality looks as though it will last.

Paid £119 for mine in my local tackle shop.
