The FI model has good bail springs..the FJ model had bad reviews on the bail springs..


My guess...the owner redoes reels for a living..the reel had fresh oil coming out of it..my guess..they disassembled it and had one part upside down..the reel would turn 2 turns and lock up.it did this in both directions..Also..the shaft that makes the spool go up and down..would not move...someone did not reassemble the reel correctly..

What ticked me off was that the seller called me a liar..I knew EBay would re-read all the communications so I let the man set himself up..EBay sided with me..I got my money back

Happy Camper
