I used the 6500SSM all fall. Flawless. H.D. for sure. I packed the gearbox with Grease. I wish they would make a 5500SSm. The 6500 SSM is a little on the heavy side on my 1081M but it will do. Balances very nicely on my 1201M. I tried out a 5500SSG, Graphite version. Seems as smooth as the metal 6500SSM. My concern was over stressing the rotor and bail arm using braid of 30-50lb. with excessive drag pressure. The Fin-Nor Model 12 offshore may be the in between reel for the 9'. Weighs in < 20oz.
