Sent an order to Amazon.com for a new UL spinning reel. This was an unknown brand I had never tried before. Woe is me! LOL! Anyway, have any of you ever had a reel manufactured by H.T. Enterprises? It's an UL "Accucast" model. The fit & finish were great. 6 bbs too. However, the reel is designed such that the position of the reel foot points the spool of the reel at the rod instead of the first guide, as most reels do. Attachment 138077
I thought....well, maybe this is just something new. I tried it out. It cast very well with 4# test Fireline and a 5' fluoro leaders. Great.....however.....upon the retrieve, the reel's position caused a strong vibration throughout the entire length of the rod. This would negate any feel for a light tap or strike while retrieving. Not good! True, it gave the bait action....but that's not what I want from a reel. I'll supply the action....I just wanted a reel to cast and reel in smoothly, whitch this particular reel fails at miserably.
I was just curious if any of you have ever had any experienced with this particular reel? BTW, I sent the reel back and was given a full refund. :)
