I bought three Pinnacle Deadbolt spinning reels when I started my guiding business a few years ago….they had the continuous anti reverse feature which i liked.
They had a horrible problem with line getting under the outer spool cover and wrapping around the shaft….about every other cast. I sent em back and they came back the same way, 2 months later. They wouldn’t do anymore and those reels are still sitting in my shop.
I would definitely see that they corrected that problem with the new ones.
For a few more bucks I LOVE MY FIN NORS!!!! $59.95 6 BB… super durable…tough enough for James Holst to use 200 days a year.
Dan, my son has a couple pinnacle baitcasters, he has had them for a couple years now seem to be pretty good reels. Hasn’t had any problems with them. He bought these cause they were cheap and they were a cool color.
I have a pinnacle baitcaster I got this last year. It is a very good real for the money. I’ve had no problems with it and will buy another one this spring.
Thanks for the input guys.I bought a few high dollar ones that has arrived.They seem great.Will spin for ever.Have to see how they work out next yr.I hope next season comes fast.At this rate i will be broke long before its time to slide the boat back in
