Comments about Shimano Shimano Syncopate FG Spinning Reels:
I bought the first Shimano Syncopate FG 1000 reel,
because it was a replacement for a Shimano Ultralite I inadvertently kicked into the lake! I liked it so well, I bought another, the last one they had!
Comments about Shimano Shimano Syncopate FG Spinning Reels:
I use this real on a ultra light pole with 4 lb line and 1/32 oz jigs to fish for crappie. I love the casting trigger for one handed casting.
Comments about Shimano Shimano Syncopate FG Spinning Reels:
I have been buying Shimano Reels for over 25 years and they have always performed well and lasted. My kids love the Quick Fire casting.
Comments about Shimano Shimano Syncopate FG Spinning Reels:
a saltwater-rated ultra light -- what a concept. spooled up and ready to jumpt into the ocean.
i do wish, however, that it came with a spare spool. ultralights are subject to getting spooled or broken off.

Comments about Shimano Shimano Syncopate FG Spinning Reels:
I did a little research before purchasing this reel for an ultra lite rod I have and it has proven to be one of the best purchases I've made in a while. I've used it a few times already and it far surpasses what I expected. In addition, I'm greatful to FishUSA for their product knowledge,(they answered a question I had about this reel that Shimano didn't)good price, [...]Thanks FishUSA.

Comments about Shimano Shimano Syncopate FG Spinning Reels:
I have been fishing trout streams in PA for many years and have used a good many reels. I like the Quick-Fire feature of this reel, especially with lures. I used the 1000 model with 6 lb. test. Usually I have a lot of trouble with birds nests in the line. This season I did a lot of fishing and I had virtually no birds nests. And I can cast farther with this reel than with other reels. I have had no problems with it. I highly recommend this reel.

This is my second Syncopate. First one lasted me 15 years, can't say much more than that.

Comments about Shimano Shimano Syncopate FG Spinning Reels:
I use this reel for jigging for bass, walleye, and trout, I fish every chance I get, at least twice a week, and this reel is great. The quick fire casting system makes one hand casting a breeze, and the reeling action is very smooth. It is a great reel for the money.
