Great reel for the money. Casts extremely far and the handle is improved over the prev version

Thanks. I don't understand what this "line guard" is that is supposed to prevent snags behinf the spool. Is that something else to get caught on? I also hve never seen this "twistbuster" thing. What's up with that.
I like no fuss reels that I can fix myself.

It's a lot slower than the previous model Emblem Pro, if that's important to you.

If you can find the old style model that's the reel you want
I think you can find them cheaper than that too
