I bought this for surf fishing, but I'm selling it because I purchased different tackle after only using it once. It has 300m of PE line spooled on it, and since it's only been used once, it's still in good condition. You can go fishing with it as soon as it arrives. How about it for the upcoming flounder and whiting season? The spare spool is brand new and unused. There are no noticeable scratches to the untrained eye, but please consider carefully if you are sensitive to such things. Thank you.
