Avet reel

i picked up the avet sx reel not too long ago. i finally got a chance the other night to test her out on some fish. overall, i really liked how the reel performed. i put it on a 1089 spiral wrapped conventional and did some jigging from shore in CT. it casts sweet (two aftermarket mags installed) and the drag was super smooth! i really like the "waterproof" design. water will get in to the body, but i think either the drag or bearings or both are sealed. the lever drag concept is a little tricky at first, but after a few casts, i was in the groove. i may give a larger one a try next season. this will definatley be my go to shore jigging set up. any one else put some real time in with the reel?
