Title: Camekoon
Post by: Langladehunter on Oct 11, 2021, 05:53 AM

Has anyone one tried the camekoon  inline reels on ebay? I bought 3. Haven't tried them yet. Also bought a Pflueger president inline from cabelas waiting for its arrival. Any thoughts on the Pflueger?

yes, i used one last year.

This model https://www.ebay.ca/itm/FL501L-Inline-Ice-Fishing-Reel-2-5-1-Gear-Ratio-Left-Handed-Retrieve-Winter-Reel-/143915114856?hash=item2182026168

Ok reel for the money.

Drag suffers from the same issues as the 13 fishing equivalent. Reels probably come from the same factory to be honest.

Little grease and dis assembly goes a long way for the drag system.

I would not recommend to be honest. A lot better options for inline reels out there.

I just ordered the new Pflueger President inline from Sheels.  I’m excited for its arrival.

I also bought  pflueger returned it. I don't know if I'm totally sold on inlines.ont_angler what grease did you use? Camekoons quality is lacking but I think will serve my purpose for 10fow and less for fishing pannies.
