Sougayilang Spinning Reel 10000 Series Surf Fishing Reel 10+1 Stainless Steel BB Ultra Smooth Powerful CNC Aluminum Spool for Saltwater Freshwater

Good

Update #2 - 4/4/2022 I am putting my 5 stars back. The seller sent me the item without any question. Unfortunately, it was the wrong part. Yesterday 4/3/2022, I received the correct part. They let me keep the wrong part and I did not pay a single penny for it. What can I say? Excellent customer service. Thank you so much seller HOLY KNIGHT! Goodluck! I hope you get more customers. YOU ARE ONE OF THE BESTS! Updated March 6, 2022. I changed my rating from 5 to 3. This morning I lost the thing that locks the handle. See the picture I uploaded. I have no clue that it went loose. I am trying to contact the seller to see what are my options. I hope they sell this lock. I am not planning to buy this again. Below is my original review just an FYI. This is probably the best reel I have purchased. I have used this with my surf fishing maybe at least two times already. It was always soak and wet with salt water but so far I don’t see any rust. I am using 80lb braided line with no issue.

excellent

The main mechanics seem sound and it winds smooth and feels strong, the drag handled me pulling in a a large ray. However the reel arrived with a decorative? rubber band around the barrel that has fallen off during shipping. The handle, made of hard foam fell off while winding in. Luckily I was able to fish it out of the water and push it back onto the handle. I will need to glue it on. Mixed feelings.

We have started the 10000 Series Sougayilang Spinning Reel evaluation and out of the box we are impressed with the build quality and the appearance of this well made reel. Nice feel in the hand and decent rotation, a little heavy but feels substantial. Not sure about the vented spool so will be using 20lb mono as backing with a double-uni knot to braid just incase. For a salt water reel under 100$ it stands out as a contender for budget minded people who want quality at a good price. We are taking to Mexico in February we will update the review after 2 weeks of surf fishing. Will be loading with 50lb braid and will be attached to a 12ft surf rod. Stay tuned.
