I am not sure of the exact model I have but I use it jigging the canal since it can't take getting dunked according to fishweewee. It casts great and has awesome drag so it works in the canal for me. No surf there to worry about.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

I second that. I have a 5500 that I use at the canal and when chasing tuna. Fantastic reel. I have used mine on the sand too with no issues. |
