can any1 tell me anything about the abu5000 as i have just purchased a one for£15 i am only going to use this reel for spinning do u think it is suitable and was the price i paid for it ok.cheers wayne
I use my 5000 for light shore work and recently went to do a bit of spinning but my small fixed spool broke so I been using it for spinning as well and found it to be well up to the job.
if your getting birds nests, try screwing in the brake, untill the spool goes quite tight. then you can get used to it better, and gradually ease the brake as you get more confident
