Personally, I wouldn't make the investment unless I was fishing the surf daily or needed a blinged out reel to show my socio-economic status. Plus, the new ones are made in China.Africa Part 2: May 2018

So what do you mean the money saved in lost lures? I have lost a couple or more from bails snapping shut. If not a Van Saal what to get ? I need a small reel to surf cast with, I have a few injuries that don't let me use big heavy equipment. I am not into social status , I already know I am on the bottom under pond scum.
I have a new Penn 750ss made in the USA but its a tad to big I need the next size down, I have read that mant reels fill with sand and they are like swiss watches to clean. I would like to buy American made , but not to likely, I don't really want to spent crazy money. Any specific ideas? and how is the place next to DSI on price?Last edited by mickeyblueyes; 04-15-2016, 07:30 AM.

I went to a web site selling the Penn 706z and it got terrible reviews,said if sand gets in your sunk,and other issues, like spotty quality control.
I always wanted to get the Shimano Sedonda maybe I should just get that one .
What don't you like about the Van Staal? And only one of them is sealed the rest aren't ,

It is tighter bc it is sealed. You shouldn't be dropping your reel in the sand. My penn does bind ip awful when it gets sand in it
