I would not get one for surfcasting but I suppose it could be ussed that way. The only issue I have is "the button" could be better designed. I would not buy another one (would get the small gold shimano levelwind) but I think these work good for bottom fishing.

I think they work great as long as you know how to care for a Penn International....
Aka... don't touch anything... just wipe it down and oil it once every couple weeks depending on use.
