The design of this reel is awesome as it holds 150 yds of backing and a 5 wgt. line. This reel can easily hold a 6 wgt. line and plenty of backing as well. Balances out on a sub 3 oz 9 ft 5 wgt. quite nicely. Fished it 4 days last week and it preformed flawlessly. Caught lots of fish and with a fair number of 16 to 18"ers. Drag is smooth and built out of qualiity parts and the best thing is it cost the price of a really nice fly line. My philosophy has always been that a trout fly reel is something to hold the line. We survived years with just a click and pawl drag system. Now we have beautiful CNCed works of art that are incredibly light and machined perfectly but cost an arm and a leg. Hey if you can afford them go for it- they are worth it; but if you want to save some money buy a really good fly line and put it on this reel. I think you will be happy. This reel costs less than a replacement spool for most new machined CNC type large arbors. If you smash it on the rocks or drop it over the side of a drift boat you can buy another. Buy the CNC reels for your saltwater 10 weight.

I bought this reel for my wife who is just getting into fly fishing. My first impression is that it looked pretty wide on her rod. Almost too wide. I quickly got used to how wide it looked and decided to let it's perfomance speak for it. Turns out the wide design is a boon in disguise. It's not at all overly heavy as I've seen some people say. It's well made, has clean lines, adds a nice balance, and looks pretty good on the rod. More importantly, it performs REALLY well. The drag is actually adjustable (unlike many reels in this price range), it strips evenly, and it remains consistant (so far). Long story short, this is a lot of reel for this price range. I'd highly reccomend it.

Bought this to replace (and preserve) my now vintage Martin reel on my Martin 3016E 8' 6/7 rod for bass fishing. It arrived, and I loaded it up with new backing, new 7wt line, and new leader.... then spent a few hours practicing casts to get use to the feel of the balance.PROS: It felt good, but is actually a bit more "butt-heavy" compared to my old Martin. I can learn to adjust to the change. It operated smoothly while reeling in line and while stripping line off (with a little fine tuning of the drag). The price is a big positive, but....CON: Only one to mention - the spool-to-body fit isn't the greatest. I pulled a stock photo of the reel from another website, and added red arrows pointing to the problem areas. The reel is very open, with the two line guides being the only things keeping the line on the arbor. Several times (while practicing casts), the line was able to slip through the gap between the spool's rim and the line guide "plates" affixed to the frame body. Not wanting to nick a new fly line, I had to loosen the spool and reposition the line. This was only a problem on a few backcasts.The guide plate issue dropped it from a 5 star to a 3 star, but the price bumped it up to a 4 star.

The only reason I ordered this was because it was LISTED as a complete Reel no just a spool.

I like my Echo Ion 6wt reel quite a bit, but now that I know I can get extra spools for it cheap and easy, I like it even more. This spool I bought for a full sinking line. The other spool I have for this reel has a one-handed spey setup on it. I am going to buy one more spool for a regular floating fly line and my 6wt Echo rod & reel will be able to do anything I need it to do

Bought this as a backup pike reel, ended up using it for everything under the sun. Easily best bang for the buck fly reel out there. ECHO make awesome gear at the a great price , have a few rods by them and they are virtually indestructible , the reel shares the same manufacturing qualities , built to take a beating.
