Question

I haven't fished with a 7500 yet.

Bloo - my experience is limited to the 6500 Nautil (yellow). I didn't fight many "large" fish on it (say, over 10-15 lbs) - so keep that in mind.

It worked okay! No problems with gear slippage and the such, but the bail had a tendency to stick b/c of salt and grit getting embedded in the protective bail spring grease.

I think they should offer the Nautil in a bail-less model - and poof problem solved. You can do the mod yourself.

For the $$$, you ain't risking much. If the reel does have a fit, just send it in and the folks at Pure Fishing will take care of you (fantastic customer service).

Having said that, I fish mostly Van Staal's now that I acquired a bunch of the newer models.
