These were purchased as gifts but I own several of my own. Excellent crappie reels even though occasionally I find one with a short pickup pin.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by CRAPPIEGRASSHOPPER VERY GOOD REEL
My buddy had a couple and I like his so I bought 2 reels for myself. The work really good for us catching slab crappie. I like then better than the small spincast reels. This is the only reel I will buy from now on for crappie fishing

i would think it would work real well with a fly rod with light line. It would take light line in order to throw a fly.A:Â
While it is possible to use a Xebco on a fly rod, it is not recommended because a zebco is not designed to work with fly line whis appropriate for a fly rod,A:Â
It would work with 6-8 lb line, but it may be to bulky. I wouldn't recommend it for fly fishing.Answers

what is best for smallmouth bass and catfish underspin reel cause i have never owned one before are these good or junk?
Answers
A:Â
I caught hundreds of largemouth bass (known bigger than probably three pounds) on a zebco 11 trigger real last year. I bought a 33 to use this year for small bass and crappie. Their drag sometimes hangs wqith very large bass.A:Â
one should use high test strong line for catfish because they often weigh more than twenty poundsThis line is not compatable with an underpin reel .Duch a reel can usually handle the4-8 lb. line that is typically used for smal;mouth bass.A:Â
The 33 might be ok for small-mouth bass, but I'd get a Zebco 733 or 888 for catfish. Just my preference.A:Â
not my choice for catfish. a good reel for beginners and even though the 'experts' you run into fishing won't admit it....everyone has started out fishing with a zebco 33.A:Â
This reel is very tough. I have landed serval bass around 3 or 4 pounds. I caught them while I was topwater bream fishing.Q:Â

Got the Zebco 33 triggerspin as a gift. No instruction sheet. How does the folding handle open?
Answers
A:Â
Unscrew the large screw, on the other side of the reel... Flip the handle back,, re-tighten the screw....A:Â
Depending if it is left-handed or right-handed, loosen the through bolt on the opposite side of the handle with fingers or screwdriver. Turn bolt head a few turns counter-clockwise and that will allow room for the handle to pivot outward and downward to align in proper position. Remember to retighten the bolt head.A:Â
Loosen the the screw on the other side of the crank handle, flip the handle up and tighten the screw back down, you're ready to fish!Top 50 Contributor

I bought a zebco 33t and was wondering what is a good inexpensive rod to match up with it. Thanks
Answers
A:Â
I use the 7-15 lb. 5'6-6' Ugly stick with the short shank, on the end, with My 33 T.. Works Perfectly....A:Â
I would suggest a Voltaeus rod by Shimano. I use the VTS-60M2. Unifiber construction. Two piece 6' rod. Also available at Bass Pro Shops. Not necessarily the cheapest, but under $40 bucks!A:Â
I have mine on a 5'6" Berkley lightning rod.Top 50 Contributor

any med.light to med. action rod go with an ugly stick1 of 1
