Comments: I'm a Lews fan so I bought this reel with confidence that it would be solid. Sadly that wasn't the case. This reel sticks a lot. I even broke the entire reel down, and sadly it's still the case. Despite being a Lews fan I cannot recommend this reel.

Comments: The reel seems to stick a-lot I would personally go for a Diawa, since they have reels close to this price point.

Comments: The SS10HS is a smooth reel for my UL rod. Seems one of the few 10-series reels available. Would like a few more of these in various sizes. Great price for a great reel.

Comments: I recently purchased the SS30HS to pair with a seven foot medium Fenwick HMG. I'm using 30 pound braid with 10 pound floro with an FG Knot. I fish light soft plastics and small jigs with this rig. It is a low price-Point combo, but I am pleased with the results. The SS30HS is not as buttery smooth as my Shimano Stradics, but it is smooth enough that I'm not really conscious of the differences until I start looking for them. Casting is great with braid: I assume it would be with straight floro. Power under load with a decent fish on inspires confidence. For a budget reel I recommend the SS30HS highly.

Comments: Great reel for the money. I just about exclusively fish with Lew's and this reel performs like al my reels from this company, unbelievable. I am fishing 12 lb braid with 12 lb fluorocarbon leader, landed a 7 lb large mouth without any problem. Again, great reel.
