I bought a used Ahab 12A last season and fished it pretty heavily, and I'm really impressed. Smooth, powerful, great drag, and I've experienced no problems at all using 30 lb. Fireline. Nice reel, with very well machined, strong gears. I find myself using it a lot in place of my old Penn 6500.

The Megalite may be a Fin-Nor, but it's not built like the Ahab. I owned a 4000 for a while, but sold it because I have a Shimano Sustain 4000FB, very similar in size, that I like better.
