I have this reel in the Model #1990. It is a wonderful design, with a medium arbor, excellent large retrieve knob and a narrow frame that is fully perforated. The operation is smooth as silk. Because of the small spool width, I suggest the backing should be the new Stren Super Braid in 30-pound “Hi Vis” gold. This reel is a real bargain for the simple design, quality of construction and performance. It will match and better several other brands selling at twice the price
