I got the LX for codfishing. I jigged with it all day Sunday and it was great. I took a peek inside and what is amazing is the simplicity of the design . . . seems to be very few moving parts to mess up. Ya can tell the two Armenia brothers that do these are fisherman/engineers.

One other concern I had was using a lever drag for this kind of fishing . . . after only one day I'm not quite ready to say I'm sold but it was a good start.

And ya that spool spins! Although I'm not sure about that dot of ink trick

One other point - the model I have has a "stop" just out of complete free spool that the Co. touts as a "cast control". It's not magged but it does seem to make a big difference. I only blew it up once . . . I had gloves on, the boat pitched on a swell and it was in complete free spool by accident . . . 'twas not pretty.

I'll post a few pictures tonight if I can figger it out.
