Loop Evotec CLW 5eight
Forums:
Hello all,
I was wondering who of you guys have experience with the Loop Evotec CLW 5eight.
I want to use this reel in combination with a 7# and 8# rod and fishing for seabass, seatrout, bonefish, pike fishing. As you can see i want to use it for saltwater and freshwater fishing.
Any comments?
Cheers,
Lino

Yup - I think it is only a specific batch which is effected - looks a lovely reel :-)
