Rated 5 out of 5 by Seuss from Its a good reel Very nice for crappie. Handels them pesky bass that hit my jigs

Rated 5 out of 5 by LaTroutman from Great Reel I fish crappie and rainbow trout with this reel. I have the CMA500,EX1000,CX1000, which are all the same reel, but different paint job and year. I even bought the combo when it was on sale. I have 16 rods/reels to play with, but the Crappie Max are the go to reels. I caught a 4.5# trout on an ultra-light combo. Now that was fun. In the future when I start replacing my reels, I will definitely stay with Crappie Max. I will put this reel up against my Pflueger Trion TR125 any day as far as the smoothness and action go.

Rated 5 out of 5 by zippersnapper from Excellent value for the $$$ Bought this for a crappie expedition during Christmas last year. Since then, I have used it a bunch for Bluegill. It not only performs well on Bluegill, but have landed numerous 1lb+ Bass on it. loaded with #10 braid, works flawless..

Rated 2 out of 5 by Ten foot pole from Two piece drag handle! The top of the spool drag setting is 2 piece and your line gets in between the two pieces causing problems. I pulled it off and other than looking different it seems to function properly. I haven't used it since removing the two screws and the top piece, but I will update upon using. I caused my line to break while throwing 4-5 times before I changed poles!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cubegleamer from Ultra Lite Awesomeness I bought this reel about a year ago. I was looking for an ultra light outfit that wouldn't cost too much. I mostly fish for bass but my 10 year old loves to fish for Bluegill on tiny crank baits like the Yo-Zuri Snap Pea so I needed something that could throw light lures. I Paired this up with Bass Pro Shop's 7' Micro Lite Glass Spinning Rod for a total of $40. I added some 2lb test and this thing is AWESOME. I can cast a mile, the drag is good, the anti reverse is rock solid and it cranks nice and smooth. This is a great reel for creek fishing. It's made specifically for panfish so I don't feel that it will perform well on larger fish because it's just not designed for that application.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Stark from Smooth but not great I have used this reel for over a month now, and I have never experienced so many line twists with a reel. It seems that every trip I have to dig out an unending tangle in the reel. I fish about 4 times a week, and I use primarily spinning tackle, and I might get a major line twist one out of every ten trips out, but with this reel, I get two each trip, and I'm spending a lot of time cutting line.

would this reel be good for trout fishing , 2 lb test line. a starter reel for my son

Asked by: spud

Yes, you can land large trout on 2 lb line if the drag is set correctly. I prefer spinning to closed face reels. I would not recommend baitcasters to a beginner.
