In all seriousness, the Helix 5 is a great unit and Ive enjoyed using mine for years

Baitcast reels, or baitcasters, are a bit more challenging to master than spinning reels, but they cast farther and offer better accuracy

I was unimpressed for a second time

Quantum Smoke S3 Baitcasting Reel: You don't build a product this exceptional by going with the flow. So while most of the fishing industry focuses on smaller reels with tiny spools, Quantum engineered a larger 35.5 mm spool into a very compact frame to provide anglers plenty of line capacity, longer casts, and more inches of line pick-up with every turn of the handle, compared to smaller spooled reels currently littering the fishing industry. However spool size becomes somewhat irrelevant without a top-notch braking system, so Quantum performed a tremendous amount of engineering research to develop a ACS 4.0 cast control that is lighter in weight which minimizes the amount of energy it takes to get the spool spinning on a cast, along with additional brakes that disengage around 5,000 RPMs to maximize distance

Youll feel pressure building and building until the drag engages
