You cant argue with resultsRecently I bought a couple of Abu Garcia Revo X's because they were very well priced and with the specs it was a no brainer. But the handle messed up on one of them and the drag slips on the other. So I'm back home to Lew's and I got this lfs and a tournement mb. They perform FLAWLESSLY. Idk why I ever switched but I can't afford to be out on the water and have tackle issues like that. Lew's truely is the standard and they set the bar. I've fished for 30 years now and I've tried everything under the sun. Crazy expensive stuff and cheap and the Lew's lfs is the best bang for your buck to date

Amazing reel for the price.I bought one of these reels several months ago and another recently both work amazing. The only negative review complains it birdsnest casting into the wind. Just tighten your brake a click and you’ll be fine. I’ve only been using baitcasters a few months, I borrowed a different model speed spool from a friend and fell in love. Bought a Mach II lews combo and it’s great too but this reel is even better & barely costs more. I’m going to give the abu revo X a try for the same $99 price but I have my doubts it will be as good as my lews LFS. I don’t think you can find a better reel without lying twice as much for a lews tournament pro LFS speed spool. And if you’re going to pay that much just buy a shimano SLX DC.

Solid ReelThis one of the few reels made suitable @ 5.3:1 retrieve for crank bait fishing. Solid smooth reel handles fluorocarbon line well. Easy to adjust.

Lews is smooth...Bought a month ago and have used it 4 times each week catching B.A.S.S. on it using 17lb mono. This is the break point of having a real nice reel for $99 or just an ordinary real for about $50. Just turn the reel and you’ll see why! Smooth as the high end models costing much more. Just spend the extra $ now and you’ll be glad in the long run!

great reelVery smooth reel. Casts excellently and the retrieve is amazing. I've used reels in similar price range that were not as nice.
I was actually shocked at how far I was able to cast on my first cast with it. Drag and everything is has very positive clicks and functions as you would hope it would. Would highly recommend buying if this is your first bait casting reel or 10th.

Great reelI am a beginner with BC reels. I was about to give up after having nothing but backlash and bird net issues with 2 others lesser brands. A good friend recommended that I took a Lews. I noticed right away at the store how smooth the spool spun in my hand and could see the magnetic drag working, so I purchased this reel and brought it home. I found that not only was able to cast without backlashing, but I could finally focus on accuracy instead of whether I was going to spend the next 10 mins or more untangling the spool... yes its been a rough road for me with baitcasters. I was so impressed that the following month I purchased the Lews Tournament MB and that reel was even better, but it cost more. The drag system is smooth and it will hold your spool in place when you set the hook. You cannot go wrong with the speed spool. I highly recommend this reel to anyone wanting a reasonably priced reel that won't break the bank. Now days I can cast with confidence when I go fishing and my 2 go to rods both have Lews.
is the lew's team laser slp speed spool reel physically smaller than the lfs model ?
Asked by: slugo65
Thank you for choosing Bass Pro Shops. The Lew's Laser SLP Speed Spool reel is larger than the Lew's Speed Spool LFS reel.

what dose the numbers mean on the side of the real
Asked by: 1ted
Thanks for your question. Each of the Lew's Speed Spool LFS Baitcast Reels is marked with a model number, and the dial on the side (which controls the MCS magnetic brake) is numbered from 1 to 10.

Can this reel be used in saltwater?
Asked by: ben121
Thank you for your question, Ben!
This reel isn't designed for saltwater but it can be used if you take the proper precautions. If you want to use this reel in saltwater, you need to be sure to rinse it thoroughly with freshwater every time you're done fishing. This won't completely stave off corrosion but it will prolong the life of the reel.
I hope this information helps!
