Spinning Reel Baitfeeder Carp Fishing Reel 10+1 Ball Bearings 5.5:1 Aluminum Spool Anti-Corrosion Sea Fishing Reel 3000-6000 Max 36LB Carbon Fiber Drag, Metal Handle

I like the fact its a good strong reel, a little heavy but still value for money, its also ideal for fresh water or sea fishing, I'm happy with my purchase,

In fairness haven't used yet apart from "Spooling up" but very impressed with the quality at this price. Seems very good smooth action.Lovely build and attractive design.

This reel looked and felt good, nice weight and balance but turned out to be useless. Try as I may I couldn't get the line to lay evenly. Tried different tensions loading but line had the appearance of a large screw thread. First time out the free spool feature stopped working, just wouldn't engage. When it did originally engage it wouldn't release the spool unless the front drag was completely off. Found if you had slightest front drag on the fs wouldn't work. Boxed up and returned for refund.

Nice small reel which I use on my stalker rod. I find now when using braid, smaller reels more useful when roaming. This is a very smooth reel. I have had no problems casting dead baits for pike fishing. My first pike on it (though not a big one 8lbs) the clutch worked very well. I had intended to get a more expensive small baitrunner reel (as I find expensive ones last longer and are usually more reliable) but the one I wanted was not available. So far this reel has surprise me especially for the price. The only issues I have are a spare spool would be handy, the fold up handle does not lock up when not in use, and the line does not lay as smoothly on the spool as on my more expensive reels. Even so I feel its excellent value and I will continue to use it.

This is not my first Yoshi reel and probably won't be my last. I honestly do not think you can get a better bait runner reel with this quality for this kind of money. I originally purchased the 3000 as a reel for my medium feeder rod that I use for pellet feeder and method fishing, so smooth, fighting drag is excellent too, works the way it should and has never let me down yet. great line capacity and the transition from free running bait runner to engaging the reel is again so smooth. the free run lever is nice and easy to operate, same as on any shimano reel, positive and smooth. the reel itself is of what seem to be quality materials and well put together, eye pleasing too if that floats ya boat. the anti-reverse works as it should and again is seamless, with no play at all ! I would highly recommend this reel if your budget is under £30....all day long ! Thanks.

Nice small reel for feeder fishing .Good price ,so good I bought a second .

Bought as a carp fishing reel and is perfect for use.Lightweight but solid with a very smooth action.Great price for the quality

For the price its just great with one exception it needs just that little bit more balancing but other than that works great , UPDATE not to say this update efects the reel in any way BUT it does have this annoying rubbing sound when tension is put on the line , i have checked for rubbing under the spool checked the bail arm roller but cant figure it out but i will , update to come ..Thanks

Very nice real for the price brings my fish in and the price I can't complain

Jestem zadowolony. Wolna szpula mogłaby lżej chodzić.

Have taken it out 2x beach fishing no problems works real good

Compré el modelo 5000, el aspecto es muy positivo. Pendiente de utilizarlo.

Solid reel for attractively low price. I heard about this reel from my fishing partner, who has been fishing saltwater from the surf for 20+ years consistently for 1-3 times per week. He fishes with nice equipment: $300 Shimano reels, $150-250 rods, etc....so imagine how shocked I was when he showed up one day with his new Yoshikaw reel (purchased off of Amazon) and after casting for 30 minutes, was raving entire time about how smooth & powerful the reel performed!We first a couple of more times together, noticing he still was fishing with the Yoshikawa, and when I inquired more about it, does he still like it, how much it cost & where he bought it? Etc.. I was no longer a skeptic.I went home and ordered the exact same Yoshikawa CY6000 (from Amazon, along w/ a few other fishermens' must haves:) that evening, and received my items without any hiccups a few days later.I've had the Yoshikawa for about 5 months now and have fished 2 times a week consistently with it. Ive fish from the beach and from my kayak with the Yoshikawa and found it performed so well that I ordered a 2nd one!I'm merely an intermediate level fisherman who will not like purchase high end fishing equipment (unless maybe I hit the lottery) but instead enjoying finding and using solid and affordable equipment. I recommend the Yoshikawa 100% and recommend this seller as well, as they were efficient and responsive each time I asked a questions.
