| I've always been a Abu fan but if the Komodo 350 will hold up as good as the Nacl I'm thinking of going that route to save cash. Anyone had any problems with there Komodo? |

These are good reels. Stout internals and will hold up to quite a bit of abuse. I have one and it has treated me well. Larry Dahlberg uses this reel on his show, the hunt for big fish, and has caught everything from cubera snapper, to sailfish, to wolfish, ect... the list goes on. The only issue he had was an instance where he dropped it in the sand I believe... |

Location: Detroit River | I have a Komodo 350 & so far so good. I don't think it holds as much line as they claim though. I still like my Abu Revo Toro 61 better though but I like the Komodo more than my Curado 301. |

Location: Racine, Wi | Used one the last half of 2014. Worked very well for rippn big cranks and rubber. I'll be using them on other rods this year for topwater and blades. Definitely picking a couple more up for this season. |

Citrix has the same capacity, same gearing avail, but weaker internals. This is not to say that the citrix wouldn't work, but durability may be compromised with baits that have a lot of resistance on the retrieve. |

That reel will work just fine for what she wants to do. EXO 300 would be a good option as well. Light weight, may be less fatiguing... |

| I finally used mine for 5 days last week. Seemed to cast quite well. Cannot say how they handle a fish yet. No takers! |
