Purchased a NEW Shimano Citica reel last weekend..............

[kickurbass]

Just thought I would give a full detailed review on it for you all. I figured I would break this down into sections 1st being aesthetics, 2nd being the ease of adjustments and settings, 3rd being performance, 4th being durability, and 5th being would I purchase another one.

Section 1 - Love it!
Section 2 - Easy Straight forward!
Section 3 - Small in stature..Smooth as silk...BIG on performance...might be greased with steriodal lube
Section 4 - It pulled in a 4lb'r the second day I had it. I would say thats durable enough for me
Section 5 - Yes

So there you have it. My indepth look and review of the new Citica 200E reel. If you would like to print out this review dont bother printing all 5 sections. Just print the first page. lol

Happy Fishin.
