Probably better reels out there but I like the trigger feature. Planning on using for early crappie fishing next season with me dad. Thoughts?!? Posted by Sushi-eater_0808
Uptons_BJs on September 22, 2025 5:50 pm Not really. Shimano actually kept the reel in production. You can get it brand new for $17.99: [IX CLAM | REAR DRAG | SPINNING | REELS | PRODUCT | SHIMANO](https://fish.shimano.com/en-US/product/reels/spinning/reardrag/a075f00002vocekqaa.html)
Massive-Catch-6993 on September 22, 2025 5:50 pm Honestly, just buy the cheapest new Shimano reel (the FX 2500, it’s like $20 at Walmart or Academy) and it’ll probably outperform that one.
