I bought 8 catfish pro rod and reel combos and 4 more rods that I put other reels on.i will say my very first experience with the catfish pro reel was not a good one .I casted the bait and set it in the rod holder engaged the clicker and after awile I had a blue cat which I landed that was almost 45lbs smoke the bait tearing drag making the clicker sing. I flipped off the clicker engaged the reel set the hook and reeled in the fish. I re baited and re cast sat back in rod holder flipped on the clicker and all the reel would do is free spool.i contacted catfish pro wondering if it was a defect or what and I will tell u from what I have experienced their customer service is not good and they must not stand behind their product .I have been catfishing for over 25 years using big reels going after big catfish and I am just disappointed not only in the first reel I used from them but also how their customer service is.after dropping alot of money on their product and repping their brand I would have figured I would have gotten a little bit of help but after going back and forth with their people with them being kinda hateful it is at this time I am removing all their decals from my boat and vehicle and will be looking to swap to a different brand so if any of u guys who reads this has any good success with other brands shoot a fellow catfisher some suggestions .

I've had good luck with the Piscifun Chaos XS size 50 and 60. I prefer the size 50 as it has a thumb bar. The 60 is larger, has a thumb button. Check my videos as I have done a teardown of both.

Awesome breakdown and review, we carry their products, I also use this reel for a affordable reel it seems to do the job well. The biggest request we have is for Left Handed in Catfish Pro other than that we get awesome reviews on their products. Catfish Pro and Ancient Mariner are our top selling reels.

Thanks. I'm glad they sell well for you and the number of returns is really the best indicator of quality. It sounds like your customers are happy and that is what matters.

It's not a lie; I do feel it's misleading. I assume there really are 2 ball bearings in each of the paddles on the handle. However, IMHO, the bearings don't do near as much good there as they would inside the frame. The Piscifun Chaos XS 50 and 60 both advertise 6 ball bearings and they are inside the reel. I have a video comparing the Chaos XS 50 and 60.
