  • Perfect for the weekend angler!
I've been a spinning guy my whole life. When I recently decided to buy my first baitcaster, I went to all the online forums and tried to decipher what I should spend my money on. Well, I quickly found out that if I spent anything less than $150 on a baitcasting reel, it would be a complete waste. I might as well tie a string to a can opener, and fish with that! Fortunately, I've been through this before with other hobbies, so I decided to ignore the haters, and spend a measly $40 on the Black Max. And I made the right decision! If you're a beginner, trust me, the Black Max should be your first baitcaster. It's smooth, casts far, and has plenty of drag. Sure, it takes some practice to learn how to use a baitcaster. I used cheap mono for a while until I got comfortable with it. But after a few fishing trips, I made the switch to braid, and haven't looked back! Yes, you will get a few backlashes in the beginning. It's not as big a deal as you might think. Just start with a tight tension knob, and then loosen it up over time. You'll pick it up pretty quick. I now have two of these reels. They are on $40 Berkley rods, and guess what? I catch fish! And I mean, a lot of fish! Big fish, little fish, in between fish... they don't seem to mind that I'm using cheap equipment. My PB is currently 6 lbs, 2 oz, using my trusty Black Max. In all seriousness, if you're a pro, go ahead and spend the bucks on high dollar stuff. Or if you fish several times a week, I can see investing more. But for the weekend angler, this reel is perfect! P.S. if you are right handed, and you've spent your whole life turning the reel on spinning gear with your left hand... buy left handed baitcasters! You'll thank me later. Update: 4 months later, I now have 3 of these, they’re still awesome! 2nd update: It’s been 8 months since my last update to this review. I’ve been using my 3 Black Max reels for everything... Texas rig, jigs, lipless cranks, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits... you name it. All 3 reels are just as smooth and strong as the day I took them out of the box. I’ve performed minimal maintenance, and I’m fairly tough on them. But they are rock solid! If you’re on the fence about this one, don’t be! Just buy one and try it out. But beware, they’re so good, you might end up buying several more! Last update: I thought I would provide one more update... 2 years later! My Black Max reels are still amazing! I haven’t cleaned them, lubed them, or ever taken them apart to work on them. They are still smooth, strong, and work great. Still hands down, the absolute best beginner reel on the market. And experienced guys will love them too! ... show more

  • Great reel for the price
Great reel for the price. Is smoother than other reels I paid twice as much for. Used for about a week solid on a trip to Northern Idaho and it started feeling a little more gritty towards the end of the trip but a little lube afterwards restored it. I have several of these and would buy one again. Great entry level reel or one to loan people who aren't familiar with baitcasters. ... show more

  • Solid
My first baitcaster. I've since bought much better and obviously way more expensive reels. This got my feet wet in the baitcaster world. Does it perform like my Curado DC? Not even close, but it's a solid reel and perfect price to try out baitcasting to see if it's something you might want to invest more money into. ... show more

  • Slick baitcaster
At the time of purchase, this was a great buy and a steal for the money. Older model but yet sturdy, slick, and ready for the go. Some of them now come with poles as a combo kit but now the prices have gone up on the single reels. I recommend this product.
