| Shakespere sucks=Penn sucks! The quality of Penn reels "hit the toilet" as soon as they started making them overseas. The "quality" of Shakespere reels was never there. This is pretty easy to figure out...........JC |

| I agree on the quality. I have always used the ss models and have been happy. Brought a small and large captiva. What a mess and they call these saltwater reels... Handles all corroded and bail hangs up after a few trips..... However I have some 20 year old senators as well as newer ones all good sturdy reels for the family and buddies |
