Jimmy great info. The Omoto Hubilie also includes a 555 and a 666 in their casting reels series. Did you check them out the same way as you did the Hubilie 777? If so, I would like to read your expert review. I looked at their website to find out the maximum drag on all three of these reels and couldn't come up with that info. Do you know? Also, how are they casting wise. The Abu Pro
Rocket is an excellent casting reel. How do they compare?

Thanks in advance,
