Best to check first if they are readily available as Argos got panned on Ebay last week for listing items they didn't have. Don't think it was fishing tackle.

What's the concencus on these? I need a cheap and cheerful reel for the younger brother for Friday and I've to pay so it's got to be cheap he had a tiny bait runner that he uses for trout he thought would be fine with 6lb line. The apple fell far from the tree

Thanks for the advice. I picked one up today and put some 12lb on it. It feels like a beefy reel, it's heavyer than my beachcasting fixed spool so should be up to the job
