| I found a great deal on craigslist MH Mojo Musky and needed a reel to go with it. I'm new to musky fishing so this will be my second rod. My other rod is an xxh Ti with a Toro. So this setup will be significantly lighter. I had never heard of this reel until I ordered it. It was fairly cheap ($99) compared to others. This is a much smaller reel however, it does have brass gears a relatively low retrieve. Time will tell how it holds up. I assume this will work well with my smaller bucktails and topwater.
good luck this weekend if your'e heading out!

| I think the Orra is a 200 size reel. Should work ok for small baits. Probably not as durable as the toro line |

| Yea, I know. It's definitely not normal musky sized. I think it could work well for smaller presentations. Time will tell. |

Location: St. Lawrence River | I think you will wear it out quick fast and in a hurry but it sure will be fun to fish on a split grip musky mojo I'm sure |

Location: Michigan | I've had an orra winch for a couple years. It's a bass reel I use on my pike rod.
does pretty good with smaller Bucktails. By smaller I mean under 1oz. Baby Buchertails, Windels pike harassers.....

Location: Tennessee | I use one on a finesse setup. Throwing nothing over about 2oz. If you long bomb casts you'll almost run out of line on a cast throwing heavy baits. Drag is ok for smaller fish but anything 40" and up it gets sketchy unless you just want to really play the fish. I'd get a Komodo off eBay for $150-160 if I were you |
