quantum cabo reels

[moosh]

I purchased one last year ,Im not to impressed with it I had some problems with the drag the first week I had it , ruined a few days of fishing ,plus I dont like the way they chip ,the paint on the reel gets a little banged up. I dont baby my gear,but dont abuse them either, the boca's don't seem to hold up ...like the Penns

I've found the Boca to be extremely durable and the drag to be the smoothest,most dependable of any reel.As far as Penns go the only one I've owned that stands up is my old bailess 704.I've had both SS6500 and a Slammer 560 literally blow up on relatively minor fish(15lb bass and bluefish).The newer SSg and SSm who's to say? But I won't chance it.

I had a 40 cabo, worked well untill I dunked it.
