I have used one for the last year and I love the thing. Great drag and the size of the reel is perfect for my use as it holds a ton of line. Why Shimano never made a 500/600 Calcutta is beyond me, but this is the next best thing and its a lot cheaper. I did change the handle from the big ball to one from a 700 calcutta and it balances better for plugging. Its funny how they sell this as a boat reel and yet I find it casts very well without all the bells and whistles( or mags) that other reels have.
