Highly reliable and powerful hooked a goliath group at lovers key, fl had him almost in but hook came out. He ran me a good 350 yds out still had enuff left for more
Simply the best. Better than all the rest.
Ironic to realise that my perfect reel of all is an Alvey and have never needed to replace it and thats why you cant sustain your business anymore. Perfect products. Never fail. But after seeing the results of such an outcome i have happily bought 3 more varying models which will all come in very useful for many years to come. I know people with alvey reels more than 50 years old and they still fish with them. I know mine will be around for many yers to come. Thank you and Im sorry.
Simply the best reels ever! got a 500b before summer and been using just that one ever since, have caught all sorts of species and they’re all fun to catch on this reel. I’m a bit messy and love the fact this reel can take a bit of abuse and doesn’t mind the sand at all, just a lil’ rinse in the wash and cast right out again. Just got a lil’ toughy today for lakes and tinnie fishing and will probably be all I’ll ever need. Thanks Alvey for quality, durable fishing equipment hope to be able to get your stuff for years to come
So good to hear the company will continue! I saved up for my first maroon 650B when I was 14 using $4 left over from the $10 dad would give me for my $6 football fee each week. I think I had to get up to about $74 to buy it from Amart All sports. 18yrs later and I still have it and it has never missed a beat! I want to get Alveys for my kids when they start fishing up the beach!
