Just got mine due to great reviews but must return before even spooling line. Appears assembly or fit of handle/drag/main gear was quite sloppy, handle moves in and out against frame with noticeable clunk whenever you turn the handle and the star drag appears to be assembled at a slight angle to the frame, or it's just not machined properly. Feels like there is too much play inside the case with the main gear. Outer handle and nut appears tight but I'm not taking a brand-new reel apart to check it, it's going back. I looked at a couple of video reviews online and they did not show the gap mine has between the star drag's outer cylinder and the frame. Pearl paint job,

Having been an aficionado of the Shimano Chronarch for years, I was distressed to find they had discontinued that reel, replacing it with far more expensive options. A friend shared that a guide he knew was very impressed with the Concept 13 reels, so I purchased one to try it. I now have three. First of all, the performance in casting exceeds the already high standards I had with the Chronarch. Second, the drag system is excellent. While casting for Speckled Trout in the Gulf, I hooked into a 45" Redfish, and was able to successfully fight that fish to the net, to be released, of course. The next trip, I had a 4ft Blacktip Shark hit a spoon, and again, was able to fight and land a large fish on light tackle successfully.

Tends to be backlash happy with heavier line but it could be just an adjustment period since all my other reels are Shimano. That said, this reel is awesome. It casts like a rocket launcher and will drag a fish out of heavy cover without the drag spinning. I fished it in a tournament the first time I used it and was very impressed. Ill buy another one. Something I have learned is, with this reel, you have to cast with little effort. That's how to control the backlashes without tightening the brakes and limiting your distance. When I use minimal effort, the lure goes a mile. When I try to put some extra juice into the cast, that's when it backlashes. I would buy a hundred more of these.

Light weight reel that cast very well started with 3 brakes moved down to 2 by the end of the trip... Caught some reds, drag was a dream! Great reel out of the package! Brake system is simple and a lot easier to use than most reels... Time will tell if the reel holds up to saltwater use! Will post update. Took my curado back after it deteriorated in under a year. This reel is much more light weight and cast better out of the box than the curado

I was fishing with a "supper" guide in Lousiana. His gear was impressive. He could cast 20 yards further than I could with a top of the line Shamano reel. I am 71. I have been fishing for trout for over fifty years. I had to get this rod and reel. Wow!!! Absolutely blows anything I have used out of the water. Smooth as glass. Great reel. A must have for the serious trout hunter.

Great processing & shipping. Arrived fast packaged very well with no damages. This seems to be an amazing reel; can't wait to get it on the water. I've spoiled mine up with 10lb mono backing to 30lb braid with a 15lb fluorocarbon leader for some of the south Texas muddy/murky rivers and ponds. Right not its matched with the Kistler KLX Feel n' Reel 7'2" med-heavy rod.

I am very pleased with shipping and packing, also the overall of the item it self. Well extremely well made. I just bought another one. The price point is set right being that its an early generation the specs are still the same for fishing the big Bass or big fish for matter. Just bought a 2nd one. Just bought my 3rd one and received it today,

Excellent purchase. Smooth as butter, can cast heavy AND light lures with no issues, and can handle big fish no problem. If you purchase the 8.0:1 gear ratio, I would not recommend big chattering baits like rattle traps and chatter baits as it will grind those gears harshly. Overall, very quality reel

Fast shipping!!! And good looking out with the delivery dude (put the box so that it was not visible to the public eye). I have the concept Z and cannot wait to try out this bad boy. I have heard a lot of great things and I can believe it. 13 fishing is putting out some great gear.

These 13 fishing reels are top notch. Super smooth, long casting, heavy drag and the braking system is easy to dial in. I have several shimano calcuttas and I prefer my concepts. The only downside is they don't hold as much line as some may perfer but they work for me. I own 3.

This is my new favorite reel. I took it out on the water for the first time today and I had great success as you can see in the pictures I provided. This reel was able to pull in every fish in the photo with no issues at all. I highly recommend this reel.

This reel is everything I expect it to be. I use this salt and fresh water. I fish hard and I fish often and this reel is one of the toughest in my arsenal. I highly reccomend this reel for anyone looking for a nice reel at a nice price.

Met all my expectations and this is a great product. I've used Shimano reels for years and had to clean after almost every outing. The casting on the Concept is as smooth as one of the most expensive reels on the market.

I absolutely love this reel, if you want to see my full review on it go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81yJM3LcCA0 for a video I made going through the specs and things I like and didn't like.

I can only compare it to the Concept A and a lot of older bait casters. This reel can cast some really light lures quite a distance. It seems to cast a slightly lighter weight than the Concept A.
