    My old man is looking for a cheap reel he wants to use in the salt water. I think I might recommend this one, I trust Seasir.

    I think the cast X is the ultra budget king, other reels competing with it are either worse or more expensive. I've used a few at that price point and its very solid.

    It has a good load capacity for the fishing line, and depending on the thickness, it can carry more or less meters.

    There is a drag test of this reel else where came to ~7kg. Considering they claim 15kg its less than half. Can you tie to a water jug and test it?
    I have a tranx500 and its like your winding on thin air its just ridiculous. I am looking for a cheap thrasher setup to practice on but can be trusted to still work well. The seasir commando gets amazing reviews.

      I like the commando a lot! I’ll have to test the drag and see where it lands at. I’ve got spooled with 20lb big game and I just got the last reel I’ve been waiting on to test all the budget swimbait reels and see what’s what

      @dbbfishing2528 looking forward to see what the drag can do 20lb is 9kg which i think is a decent amount.
      Few other questions the spool shaft is it steel?
      What do you think of the reel size compared to others, most swimbait reels are 300. What size do you think this is?
      My tranx is kinda big at 500 but for what i use it for chasing medium sized kingfish and tuna its like a game reel with a line guide.

      @dbbfishing2528 it will probably make a really good bottom bashing and lighter jigging reel as well, deffently has the capacity to go deep. Deppending on The drag capacity is going to determin how big you can go. Lots here love overhead baitcasters and just dig their thumb into the spool 🤣.
      I am thinking one of those rods from aliexpress with 2 tips a light and heavy 8-12lb and 12-17lb for australian whiting and snapper would be a killer setup.
