Anybody ever use this reel??????? It's a Sabalos?????


[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Dunk it, drag it or drown it, just rinse it off with fresh water when you're done and the Sabalos will be ready to fish again the next day. The lightweight aluminum body and the components of the Sabalos are totally impervious to saltwater, so you never have to worry about corrosion. The 9+1 ball bearing system with infinite anti-reverse won't let you down, no matter how hard you fish. The smooth front drag system uses dual discs and loves to be tested by big fish in harsh conditions. Thick power bail, long-life bail spring and anti-twist line roller. One-year warranty.

This is what they claim it can do!!!!!For only $99.00 at Cabelas.
Post up let me know what you think!!!!!!!!!!

Don't believe the hype.
This Saltiga impersonator is all show and no go. Tried it last fall and not only should it not be referenced as a waterproof reel but I don't think it is even worthy of salt water . The Shimano stradic 2000 I use in fresh water has a far superior drag over this junker. Pot metal parts, no seals, and a truly anemic drag make this an overpriced fresh water real trying to fool saltwater fisherman with false claims and Saltiga like looks. Do yourself a favor pass on this one. Thank god for Cabela's liberal return policy, back she went :roll: .
