The Cheap Zebco fishing reel I found that was brand new in the package I got to use it at the ocean this last month, and it worked fine for 3 casts, than on the 4th the insides blew apart which made a birds nest, I tried to but the components back together but it was too badly messed up. Not sure if that happened to to the shock it took when it flew off a car, or was it due to being a cheap reel.
I had bought a cheap $42 Ugly Stick GX2 for it, now I think I find a cheap baitcasting reel for the rod, probably the Kastking Mega jaws Elite and use the system for the grandkids to mess with, or use it for catfishing and bass fishing since all my fresh water stuff is ultralight to light spinning and fly.
