Comments: super smooth, first cast 4.56 largie! highly recommended

Comments: one year of heavy use and this reel is still great. i'm a shimano buy and bought this because i loved the finish and just to try another brand for a change, this reel gets heavy use along with my cores and alderbarans

Comments: Fished my new Helios for the first time last night and its great. Really light and smooth reeling. Had to get it set casting but after I did its extremely slick. Im a abu garcia guy but this reel really impressed me. Great reel, highly recommended.

Comments: Reel felt smooth out of the box. Once i started fishing it, it sounded like a grinder. i tried to "fish it out" but it just got worse. I took it apart and lubed/greased it up.. still doing it. I think a gear is stripped. Very light and looks amazing.. just not happy with performance. Sending to Okuma to be worked on. No $220 reel should have to be sent back after one use in my opinion..

Comments: Finally decided to make a review for this reel because I like it a lot.  I haven't caught a ton of fish on it yet so I was waiting but this reel is super smooth and casting is a breeze.  You have the dial on the left side, 1-10 and I usually have mine on 2 which casts smooth and far. There's plenty of line capacity, I currently have it spooled with 50lb braid and casts perfect.  I purchased mine when it had a $30 MIR with it.   Super light and awesome colors make this reel a buy

Comments: purchased this reel because I purchased the Okuma serrano lsat year and loved it. Really smooth reel after you adjust it and everything. Looks awesome! As far as casting goes, this thing casts pretty far. It is also pretty light and feels good in palm of hand. Good solid reel!
