## Description

Goldcast is a highly regarded with a strong aluminum body. Delivering flat line lay thanks to cross-bobbin winding, even line release ensure long throws in all circumstances; a great feature that can be found only a few currently on the market. The smooth and even a drag system simply add to successful fishing trips. The high-quality Goldcast fishing rods fit nicely giving you a professional level combination.

Review: A great reel - I have fished with the Diawa Goldcast reels for 20+ years now, and have caught thousands of fish. I mainly use the GC100 for bass in Northern NY with a 20 lb PowerPro braided line and plastic worms. I have tried literally every model of spincast reel that I could find, and I always come back to this one. It produces few line tangles, as long as 1) you do not try to overload with line, and 2) you keep the line tight during retrieves. I typically catch 3-4 lb bass, but have caught many 10 lb pike as well. I have even caught many 20-30 lb striped bass off MA using the slightly bigger GC120 with 30 lb braid. The only weakness seems to be the pickup pin, which wears down after a LOT of use. I get new ones from Diawa and replace as needed. I gave my brother a couple 20 years ago; he does not fish as much as I do, but his reels are still working fine. A couple of mine may be in the 20-yr old range, and generally last pretty well. Overall, I think the Diawa Goldcast reels are great products if you hate the line tangle issues with spinning and casting reels.
Review: A jewel of a spincast reel - Although light weight, it is very nimble and fun to fish with. I've used it a few times and have great casting distance. It is so much fun with a large fish, but have to work it a little more than when using a larger reels. Don't know about durability, but it appears well made.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nothing Fancy - A Good Solid Basic Reel
*by E***F on March 16, 2017*

Some time back I bought a Fenwick Methods Bait Casting Rod. A great versitle rod that comes in five pieces and can be made up into any of 4 separate rods each with a different power and action. I use this same rod to fish for trout in Wyoming as well as Bass in Texas, I just put it together differently for each situation. However, I have had trouble finding a quality closed face reel that fits it. At first I tried a Zebco Omega Pro3, (a quality reel), but the foot is to thick to fit the Fenwick. Other reels fit but didn't have the quality I was looking for. To make a long story shorter I finally happened on this Daiwa and it fits the bill. It's foot is thin enough to mount on the Fenwick and it's a quality reel like the Zebco Pro3. I gave it 4 stars because the line it came loaded with wasn't so great. Even though the write up billed it as a good professional line. Well, not compared to the Trilene fluorocarbon line I replaced it with. Also there is a lot of play in the drag adjustment dial but it functions. It doesn't have as smooth a feel retrieving line as the Zebco but this observation is a pretty picky one. So, all and all I'd say it's a great real and I would recommend its purchase. By the way my Abu Garcia Revo SX fits on the Fenwick fine, (it also has a thin foot), but it's not a closed face reel. Hey Zebco, why are the feet on your reels so thick.
