I bought this reel 8 months ago.As I wanted a good alround reel .It has been a joy to cast with.Very smooth and poweriful.
In my opinion It Is far better My abu 7000.Which I was not impressed with at all.As I found Them Overated .

I recently bought one of these reels and am so impressed with the quality castability and hauling power

as above it doesn't come near my red 7000 ct and diawa feels alot stronger

I do have a couple of the older 7500 ct and there bomb proof amd incredible haulin power but wath I would say is that the 30 H is smaller in dimensions and suits some of my lighter rods.

All in all the saltist 30h is a super reel and hopefully it will last the test of time.
