Question re the Nasci reel

Post by brownhl » Sun Jun 18, 2017 11:19 am

Read a couple of reviews where the guys said "this reel has no anti-reverse" . What the heck are they talking about, non at all?

Has a 'anti reverse' but doesnt come with the lever to disengage the anti reverse, like previous models did.

I can see this inclusion in cars in the short future, forward backward engineering imho.

Thinking about buying this reel. Is it a good product. The price looks great.

The anti reverse switch was eliminated because it is a water entry point. These reels are used in the inshore markets as well as freshwater markets. Back reeling is an old tactic that really isn't needed today in my opinion. The reels have great drag systems and if you set them correctly there is no need to back reel.

I have the 2500 version.
It's very smooth and seems to function well.
