Hey Lurch how do you like the Abu 7500 big game ? I am useing a penn535mag on the 10 rod I just got and am not very happy with it . I'm thinking of getting another Abu .[/QUOTE]
The reel is the easiest casting reel I have ever used. I can easily cast a jig half way across the canal. there are many times when a boat is coming through I think there is no way I can cast that far but have to apply the thumb brake so my line does not cross their path. I have the older black 7500 CTC3(I think??) converted to levelwind. The only thing I wish the reel had is instant anti reverse.
I have used a 535 before but I use it as a boat rods with lead core line on it. I used it a few times for casting but could not control the beast......IMO Penn casting conventionals (965/975/955/535) SUCK!
