Newell reel review?
A friend is selling a Newell 220-5 and I am interested in buying it for an eeling rod I'm putting together. The rod is a 9ft Graph M/H and was going to use my squidder on it but it's a little large and heavy. Same for any of my Abu7000's.
Would this reel be a good match for this? I'm thinking it might be on the small side and weak. I DON'T know a thing about Newells except I have never heard a complaint. Bottom line it for me..
Would a 220-5 be a suitable reel for eeling stripers from the back beach. NOT looking to throw a mile just want a good casting quality baitcaster with gutts (good drag and cranking power).
By the way I have not even seen this or any 220 model yet. It looks small in Pics. Any thoughts?
