    full of ball bearings , smooth as warm butter and hammers well
    and it really fits the wallet well too....

    Nice! Probably have to get my son one of these reels as he loves red. I see they have a green too! Thank you. Here is the one I just bought for $10 more than yours. I was very surprised how smooth it is and is one of my favorites. Love finding quality stuff at cheap.

    I buy shimano fx series reels at walmart for $19.88 & they have all performed great. I have them on all but one crappie rod.

    think they are the 1000 series , shallow spool and rather cool , will cast mono until you hit the knot on the spool smooth ....
    really work well , and yes I think I seen the green versions as well ....
    the drag system for sure competes really well with all my $80 and up reels ....just saying
