A buddy of mine has one and he loves it. But he did hook something big (didn't see what it was) that almost spooled him and he had his drag almost pin tight, he couldn't stop the thing (maybe a seal). He uses his tranx on a terez XXH rail rod. Catches YT to 35lbs with ease he says. But he did want to change it up and get a Talica 25 or so due to more drag and line capacity.
But overall, he loves the reels and fishes it really hard

I rather get a Daiwa Lexa HD 400 for less.
