Tica USA SH Series DynaSpin Reel

Trabaja bien, lo único que le he visto a estos carretes es que no enrrolla pareja la línea, en este caso en particular se carga a la punta de la bobina, esto se corrige metiéndole una arandela al eje donde asienta la bobina y ya esta

I am giving it a 4 only because I have not had it long enough to test for durability. the 4500 is light (12oz) and smooth. Cast a mile, large spool capacity, aluminum body. I fish ALOT, have no less than 30 reels in my garage. I love Okuma and was looking for a similar off brand that's a good reel. This reel looks great, I have to wonder where the negative reviews are coming from. Well I like the 1st reel so much I ordered a second, problem is the reel came missing the roller, bearings and screw that holds it all together. Not in the box and not in the packing bag. Hard to say where the problem lies here. I think if Tica shipped the reel in a sealed bag then I could replace the screw. That and they could seal the factory box w tape so we know it was tampered with. Wrote to Tica for parts and they said return it to Amazon but they didn't deal w Amazon directly so maybe who ever supplied it to Amazon SUCKS!

It had smooth retrieving but the quality was pretty bad. Lots of play in the real handle after casting for a few hours. You need to keep checking the handle cap to make sure it didn’t back out. The last straw was when the bail fell off while fishing in the dark. Cut my trip short. It seems the screw backed off which was holding it in place. Really light reel but not designed for a regular fishermen that does lots of casting.

I own a half dozen of the 2500 series, 4 of th3 3500 series and 1 of their Sceptres. Best value for the money bar none. We fish salt-water exclusively and these have not let me down in over 1 year of ownership.*edit* almost 3 years later. I now own 7 total tica reels and 5 tica rods.... No issues! These are fished regularly, both kayak and surf.

The spool acts like it’s rubbing/dragging not a smooth running reel.
