I watched Robert hook and land a +15lb catfish on 6lb line on this reel today. The drag worked flawlessly.  Actually it happened twice. Now we buy higher end casting reels, but stay in the $150 range on spinning reels because we use casting reels so much more. We have now settled on the Dobyns'

Do the spinning reels have an anti-reverse switch?

Never checked because we don't use it, but looking on line there is a switch behind the spool. We have a tourny tomorrow I let you know
