Jarvis Walker reels are absolute CRAP. Don't waste your money--you can get a Spheros for not a lot more, if not for the same price.

Garbage. Jarvis Walker is a brand sold thru Henry's Tackle, a big tackle distributor. Like Mike and I said, Garbage.

It is a huge ebay item and they say it is a Penn owned Company?
I had one and it seemed like a 1 season reel but I only used it 1
or 2 times then sold it. good reel for a beginner or kid
