www.lathams-fishing.co.uk/magnetix-mg20-cs-multiplier-pid4563.htmlAs im looking around for another beach reel,just wanted to know if any of our members own/used one of the above. I have been reading other fishing forums and to date apart from being slightly noisy from its line clicker. and low line capacity, everybody seems to be casting real well with it as a general beach reel. Ok.......so If I had £150 in me pocket id either get a Penn super or a Daiwa mag...but as this is only £60 squid but looks similar to the others and works as good as. makes me wonder.........if this is just a cheap alternative or if Penn/Daiwa just rip us off.

for £60 squid mate you could get last years Abu mag elite in green, i was looking at that reel as my wife has donated some money my way so i am still a little undecided which reel to get.

i was thinking of buying this reel also but as previously said at £60 you may as well save another £10 and either get a dawia HT or a mag elite i've heard really good things about both the latter reels.
