Smooth reel that casts a mile. I purchased 2 of these reels for musky fishing and they definitely have met my expectationsAwesome reel, but like others have stated, mine came in a gen 2 box, and I was looking at the specs and thought, oh hell nahhh, lol. But then I opened the box and found the gen 2 reel.I use it on my frog rod , no Drag slipping. Love it.Hello, recently I bought this reel last week, but I think it mentioned that in the 2020 model the drag force is 40 lb, not 30 . Is I’m correct or wrong? Thank youVery nice reel and drag is spot onThis thing is super solid, definitely worth the money!! Feels like I can fight something 20-30 lbs on it, probably bigger even. Upgraded from 13 fishing concept A and paired it with the Omen rod. My favorite setup hands down!Was a bit worried when this box arrived at my door with the specs of the Concept A3 Gen1, but after opening it, turns out to be the correct reel, Concept A3 Gen2... Not sure why 13 Fishing did not change the packaging, but rather just slap a new UPC with model number on the bottom of the Gen1s, but oh well. This one has the 40lbs of max drag, 7+1 bearings and the drag clicker.On a performance and quality side, smooth reel, great build quality, everything you could expect from 13 Fishing. Definitely recommend.
