Good reel mate, i have last seasons and they were decent. I have the stradic ci series and just got the rarium and it is friggin awesome. I didn't think that they could improve much on last seasons but it has impressed me. Have caught a few nice snapper with it and the drag is pretty smooth and has a really nice feel to it. Anyway the fj is great value for money.
