for real?? wrong reel for throwing stuff like that, looks like a great albie killer with the light line- like a TN-12 but I like the lever drag, for sure less torque then the trini- just a nice little reel for shits and giggles, TLD-5 on roids- if I had to have one or the other, the Trini 12 would crush the little gold Avet, but I still like the Avet- the price is right for a killer 12 pound bait reel

definetly not any kind of swimbait reel-


I'd throw a CT400 or CTE300 if your throwing 6-9" swimbaits, a little lever drag reel is not what you want if you're throwing any kind of lures- nice little bait reel though!
