14 day update
So far its great. I had very little experience with baitcasters so after putting the line on and making a few cast to get it dialed in I'd say its good to go. Don't get me wrong, if I cast wrong or dont adjust the brakes it will birds nest. In my experience its been really easy to use and lots of fun.
Great combo
Great combo. It's now my go to jerkbait/ finesse set up. I can cast this thing a country mile.
Absolutely love the Spartacus Defender
Absolutely love the Spartacus Defender. Once the gears are dialed in, it has a smooth cast and a smooth retrieve. Great cast distance, as well as great bite sensitivity. It is lightweight but able to stand the fight of big fish. Definitely recommend this casting combo.
Good comb
Fished it all day, good fill to the rod Reel is a little touchy getting it set to not back lash. All bait casters will B/L. If you purchase this combo (satisfied) Yes. All buy more equipment from bentrod
I love this thing I can cast a mile with it and no back lashes maybe 1 in a 100 but thats about it. I love this thing
The tip broke easy
Spartacus
So far this combo is fire, everything is so smooth and works perfect. I can't wait for my next KastKing purchase. Everything i've gotten here is top quality.
