Field Test Results on Cabela's Salt Striker Spinning Reel..


It's been about 4 months into prime bonefish and now, tarpon season.
I've brought my 2 Salt Strikers (loaded with Berkley 10-pound Big Game monofilament) to Abaco where the reel took 23 bonefish to ten pounds.
Then, I took them down to Belize where I employed them tarpon fishing to release 4 fish (out of 14 jumped) to 40 pounds.
The reels have done remarkably well. The bail mechanism, line roller, instant antireverse, spool stability, line capacity as well as ergonomically-designed reel handle have made these 2 reels some of my favorite items in my gamefish "power arsenal".
