I’ve never heard of them, but that goes for half the stuff nowadays. I guess it’s pretty easy to get a Chinese company to pop out reels with whatever name you’d like on them.

Personally, I’d stick to Diawa, Shimano, Lews, or Abu. But, maybe I’m the one missing out. Who knows.

And if you knew how much they cost and then got marked up - it would piss you off.

I know of a company that is selling reels for 200+ that he pays $30 for from China. They just put his name on them.
