So the folks at Bates were kind enough to send a reel to test, and I couldnt wait to get some line on it

Baitcasting Reels Line Capacity Baitcasting reel line capacity is an important factor to consider when choosing a reel for your fishing needs

The 57 though will not be coming out with me often because of this: A previous owner had the brilliant idea of placing this hole right in the path the line takes as it leaves the spool during a cast, and when I fished it I could feel/hear the line getting caught in the hole with each coil of line leaving the spool

Every time we pop that lure, Id say its a good two or three count before it settles back to the bottom again
