The reelfoot sits closer to the rod now, so my fingers find it without looking when I'm stripping line. Hand feel is noticeably better than the older version I fished for years. Solid little reel that just does its job.

The drag on this thing is buttery smooth and I barely had to adjust it when a brownie made a run for the weeds. Reelfoot feels solid in hand too, no wobble at all. Two trips in and it's already my go-to for the small stream rod.

Landed a nice rainbow on my first outing with this and the disc drag stayed buttery smooth even after it took a few runs. The reelfoot feels solid without being heavy, and it palms really comfortably when I'm fighting a fish in close.
