anyone have the newest Islanders? i bought 3 and 2 have had odd issues..
customer held onto the reel too hard on decent trolled hali, let go and the reel spun so fast that the pawls flipped. fubar free spin, i had to palm the sucker and carefully reel in from 300' out. grrrr .
other reel problem, very sticky drag that grabs inconsistently, damn near feels like it binds right up.
mr3's always needed love, but never had these problems.
great problems mid season. now running back up amundson and faithful shimano 2000.
