A nice reel, I've had mine 9 -10 years now I guess with no problems at all.
If you need a little more capacity for $30 more the Diawa Millionaires are also nice, with more bearings and a magnetic brake system, if you perfer them. |

The Calcutta is a big improvement over any Abu I've ever fished with.

Now to figure if I
need a new rod, or convert one of the existing bunch. Tsk, tsk. You know the rules. New reels require new rods. As I tell my wife, the reel seat on that old rod has conformed to the shape of the reel foot of the reel that is now on it. The reel foot on the new reel will not properly seat on that rod because it is shaped different and will become loose and might fall off. Therefore, I will need a new rod for the new reel.
