Arrived safely. Need to put some fishing line on, and head to the water.

I bought these for my grandkids. They haven’t used them yet.

Love it. Easy to cast

Paid $60 at Academy for starters after rigging up through out 4 full casts before it gave me problems. Pressed button to cast out released button release of the line did not function freely I would have to hit the button multiple time on a row until it would release the line. Once released I held the line with one hand to release at the max extension of each cast. A complete failure. I checked the reel for any obvious issues. Did not open reel to inspect bearings and etc.

Nice little fishing outfit for the price. Great for any beginner. I caught several fish on mine catches bass no problem on lighter lures it does not like heavy ones. I've been using a mini Chatterbait and catching fish on it like crazy.
