Here is a crucial question. Does the levelwind disengage during a cast?
If so, think twice before buying it. It creates big problems when a fish runs further than your cast.
Is it because if the fish runs past where the LW disengaged you could have a situation where the line is coning off say the left side of the spool while the LW is on the right? It MIGHT be ok if the spool is narrow enough...maybe.
