Typed in Japanese fishing reels and found some very interesting reels.I bought 2 in a 1000 series.Both $14 each shipped free.Box came 3 days later and to my surprise they were great looking reels.I spooled one and threw a 1/8oz grub and it went all the away across my yard.The reel has 13 SS bearings and is the smoothest reel I ever owned.I ordered 2 of the 2000 series at $52 they get here Sat
.They were made in China.LOL

Just about everything is made there anyway, what’s $14 to take a chance?

"Apathy is the Glove into Which Evil Slips It's Hand", but really, who cares?

Florida Fishing Products has a pretty good explanation on their site why most fishing equipment is made in SE Asia or China. BTW, Ive got a couple “cheap” lever drag reels from ebasicpower.com that I use for spanish trolling that work great. I think they are around $40
