One Bass Fishing Reels Level Wind Trolling Reel Conventional Jigging Reel for Saltwater Big Game Fishing

I was a little skeptical buying these reels with the fear that they would be a cheap knock off. But I gave it them a try since replacement parts for my Shimano Charter Special TR-2000LD cost as much as the One Bass reel brand new.First some clarifications...the housing of these reels is not aluminum as implied in the pictures. It is mostly plastic? graphite? with some anodized parts in the handle. And some metal parts in the handle that are painted to look anodized.I transferred my spectra fishing line from the Shimano and could tell immediately that the One Bass did not have the smoothness or precision of the Shimano. But the action was good enough to give it a try.I was able to put the reel to the test yesterday morning off of Marblehead, MA. The lever to engage free spool seems to stick a little and I frequently had to adjust the spool position with my thumb before engaging free spool. An annoyance, but not a deal breaker. The smoothness of the drop of my jig to 120 feet was good enough. The smoothness of reeling in was fine. I caught 4 decent sized cod fish, some macks, and some pollock.For the price, I am more than satisfied. This is not the quality of a Penn or Shimano. But it is good enough for saltwater game fishing. I will revisit this post once I have some hours on the reel to test its durability.Update July 30, 2018: I've been catching a LOT of fish on this reel and it is performing great. Deep sea cod fishing on Stellwagen drop offs....no problem. Big stripers on mack chunks...piece of cake. Not a single sign of wear or corrosion. I'm upgrading my review from 4 stars to 5 stars. This reel is worth every penny compared to other products out there.

So i got this after reading the reviews. I was very excited getting my package like a kid at christmas. The un boxing went well good packaging came with a bag for the reel a very nice touch.It spooked up nice and then it went south.The instructions yalk about being able to put the rod clamp on after it is spooled up...well the screws they sent me are not set tohave that ability. My penn does...i am trying the reel tonight it seems a bit less than what you want in a slat water environment.I hope the manufacture reads this and makes it right if so AND there are no perfomance issues i will update my rating. I read in another review the manufacture was good at doing the right thing...we will see. I gave it 2 stars soley on the packaging.Ok so its less than 24 hours on a weekend so i cant comment on the manufacture response. However i used the reels last night and landed teo of the biggest fish of my life. A 63 and 53 lbd striped bass these are fish of a lifetime . I was thankful for the amount of mono i had brcause of these reels. However while the did work and could be used againg ,im going out to get two penns today. These reels are cheaply made. The crank handel bent and impeded the ability to crank. I am thankful that was after i got the fish landed. And because its sooo flimsy i was easily able to ben it back to make it work. Because of the other ossue not being able to blace the clamp on my attention wasnt 100 on fighting the fish i kept getting worried it the real going to come off.While these reels will work, my experience is enough for me to not reccomend these at all. Save your money and buy a penn squall its cost a little more but is 100 times better.

The reel is nice for what it is and a bit larger than I expected but overall good quality. Very smooth, no gear mesh noise or clicker noise when casting or retrieving. Audible click drag. Solid. Only gripe is the placement of the detent for the audible clicker. It's too close to the gear and takes a little additional effort to disengage fully where theres no noise.

Great customer service, I ordered 2 one bass reels from Zhifu Trade Co. Ltd, one of the reels the gears were defective and the other has proven to be one of my best reels. I contacted the company and Alissa from the company took care of me replacing the broken reel, I have brought many fishing reels in my life and can say without a doubt these reels compare to any popular name brand reels out there. I have pulled in shark, a 40lb black drum and several reds with no problem it is my go to reel now, the price is right and the customer service is second to none thanks again Alissa!

We have two of these reals and use them in San Carlos Mexico off our inflatable. In seven days they caught without fail, 14 Dorado, and more Sierra and Skip Jack than we can remember. The reals worked like a charm. The drag settings took a bit to adjust and get used to, but for the money these reals can't be beat

I was delighted to find the reel was superior to expectations; the price was a bargain! The product was packaged well and the instructions were thorough. It was clean and performed well thus far; time will tell. (I don't care for the handle; it seems oversized and wieldy but we'll see if a large fish proves me wrong.)

Took it out on a deep sea charter this weekend and the reel did great. Caught 30+ snapper and 1 3ft shark in about 200 foot of water. Just watch out for the line guide, its a finger smasher....

The media could not be loaded.  Out of the box this reel get stock and reels really hard. Contact warranty ask me for photos. I send the video just put here. If a client complaint is for a reason. Don’t hesitate to resolve the issue.Later on the company contact me and send me another one this one seems to be in good working conditions. Now I have to test it probably I will be doing a review in how it performs. They have 5 star because they make it right.Thanks!

Ich habe die Rolle noch nicht in gebrauch,aber sie macht einen soliden eindruck. Angeln in Sept.

I had to disassemble the reel to find that a snap ring was not properly installed. Once corrected the reel operated as it should.

looks good feels good

Looks good

Reel looks good. Mounting fasteners had no issues. Clicker needed some gun oil to make it moveable. Was too stiff to move with out a tool. Held 370 yards of 40 pound testWill add a performance review once a few fish are caught using it.
