Cardinal Spinning Reel T3000F

[BE]

I found a what may be good deal on Cardinal Pro Spinning Reel's Model #T3000F.

Has anyone used these and can give me some feedback on there performance and their pro's and con's.

Cardinal Spinning Reel T-3000F Features:

Medium frame, front drag reel with 5 stainless bearings and instant anti-reverse
AccuBalanced rotor for smooth operation
5.2:1 gear ratio with 200 yd./10 lb. test line capacity
Titanium nitride plated oversized line roller
Includes 2 deluxe annodized aluminum spools
Everlast bail spring system.

They look good for what I want them for but any feedback would be appreciated, Thank's.

Started using the T500F this spring and now own three of them. My opinion, (for what it's worth) no better reel for the money. I gave my Pinnacle reels away. These Abu Garci T500F and T1000F reels are smoother, faster and more mechanically sound than any reel I have used.

Have you used then in very cold wet weather yet?

I think I will pick up a couple of the T3000F's. For $40 a reel it looks to be a deal!

Thanks for the feedback!

Paid more than $40 for mine, but worth it. Have not used them in cold weather but will this winter. Hook'em!
