## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Just buy it
  

*by F***K on Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2019*

Puts big fish to sleep FAST and feels incredible. If you are on the fence about dropping $500 on a reel just do it, you will not be disappointed with the performance. I use the 500HG surf fishing and on jetties. Not really the designed use but there is nothing out of reach with a 60g DUO Drag Metal jig. Want to cast over the break with out wading with sharks? This’ll do it. Fish off a jetty and put monster Reds and Spanish to sleep, Fast? This’ll do it. Just buy this reel, I had It in my cart forever and finally just clicked buy now. Just click it, man. Just click it .

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Overpriced
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2021*

This thing doesn’t cast as far as my trinidad 20a and makes some weird noises even after it was serviced at Shimano Service Center in Irvine. Not worth $500. I dislike Shimano.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The alpha.
  

*by C***. on Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2021*

Love this reel, I was going to get a Trinidad 14a but the TRANX 500 hg is on par with it , no doubt about that, I also like the convince of a bait caster. And that exactly what this reel is . Just as beautiful and powerful. I personally put a Trinidad 20a handle on it for better Torque.
