Thanks guys. I also put my Solo to the test and really like that reel. It is solid and light! The only thing that concerns me is that I had to really tighten that tension down for the hook set. If I get a big cat or something on, I think It will cause trouble and break off. Also, I couldn't hardly get a bite with that line it came with. I added some mono and never put the thing down after that. The Solo coupled with a 10' Crappie Maxx Pro was a great combo!
