SeaKnight Speedy Saltwater Spinning Reel, 6.2:1 High Speed, Max Drag 24Lbs, Smooth Fresh and Saltwater Fishing Reel

Nice reel, especially for the price. Have the same model in in next size larges (2500). They are identical other than the spoil. The 2000 spool is not as deep (see specs) so holds less line. I was for inshore saltwater fishing ... salmon. Works great, pairs with an older BROWNING 8-1/2FT ML graphite rod. Good combo for HUMPYS (see pic)

My first 2 reviews deleted due to 100 character limit UPDATE....I have upgraded my rating. Have been using this sub 40$ reel for couple months now. Not kidding, paired with my Gator tail, its my go to all around salt water rig. Still is smooth as glass. I really dont believe it myself, but thinking of pairing a new one with a St Croix MOJO 9 ft MM Fast. Think it would be a perfect rig. UPDATE... I own two of these. I admit i have changed my surf fishing rig to Bait Runners. But both reels i own work perfect. Advice. if you are not a person that can trouble shoot an issue with a fishing reel. Buy a 150$ reel. if you spend less, might need some work on your end. I have read negative reviews on this product. If you cant check proper drag washer order. Very common issue with lower priced reels. Dont buy one. I have pushed these reels to the point I believed it would break, burn up drag. And still works. Pictures i posted are reel...lol Funny right....You not gonna get Shamino Saragosa feel at $40. Update. 5/2021 I now own 2 Sea Knight 6000 reals. If Sea Knight made a 6000 bait runner. Shamino would be in trouble. Both show ZERO corrosion. Work and look new. One a little smother than other. This is the reel that I keep in my truck on 6ft pole 24/7. Works perfect. My opinion, its the best non Bait Runner sub 40$ reel on market. HEY SEA KNIGHT / MAKE A BAIT RUNNER / WILL OWN MARKIT. G

Great real works great just headed up. Salmon fishing held up with some nice 20 pound kings.

I bought this reel last spring but never used it until yesterday. I paired it with an appropriate weight Kast King rod! Yesterday I went fishing at a fishing pier in the Gulf of Mexico and I hooked a monster fish!! I was using a size 1 hook, a short wire leader, a weight , and a pin fish. I fought this fish for 30 minutes fully expecting to have my line broken or worse. Oh yeah I was using braided line fortunately. My point is this reel and rod amazed me in how well it handled this huge fish!! Drag worked perfectly, fish pulled an out line, I pulled line back in, etc. until I finally got it up to the bottom of the pier where I learned I had just caught a huge sting ray!! I am very impressed with this rod and reel for the quality at a reasonable price!!!! Tight lines!!

Did not last. I used it maybe 10 times in fresh and saltwater. I rinsed it after each of the few saltwater uses. I never caught more than a five lb fish and it broke on a 1.5 lb Catfish. It looks great and reels smooth, but it should have lasted longer; very disappointed.

I caught a 10 pound catfish, and it held his own

When new this reel was amazingly smooth. the drag was butter! the handle is super comfortable. I was easily catching fish that should had way outclassed its size. Then out of nowhere the roller on the bail no longer turned. The reel became harder and harder to retrieve. Line began going under the spool. the drag started to intermitantly lock. In the process of refurbishing the reel i noticed that the frame is plastic! Got the reel working at about 90 percent. Went fishing. after getting to my hot spot i reached for my pole and the reel had snapped in half. I will not buy again. Its a fantastic reel if you dont mind replacing it often

Fantastic saltwater reel for under $40. I bought the 6000, layed down some 20# mono for backing, then loading up 60# braided, mounted it on a Berkeley big game MH 8' seated the reel with two hose clamps, then wrapped it with electrical tape. I have been pulling Bull reds, sheepshead, snapper. This is a workhorse rig that gets the job done well. If you want to spend more on gear, be my guest. I am old school, I am not caught up on overspending on certain brand names just to go fishing and have some fun. I will replace a few other reels with these Sea Knight rapid IIs, I am impressed with the quality for the value. Lastly just because it says anticorrosion, You still have to take care of your gear..wash it and oil for next time.
