I got a very close look at a Captiva at one of the fishing shows (we took it apart) and it is nothing close to the Penn SS Liveliners. The money makes it tempting but I ending up buying the Penn 5600 Liveliner.

I actually like the Penn better than the Shimanos due to it's smaller body size. However, the live lining drag is purely manual (that is, it doesn't engage when you turn the reel handle).

	Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
