Very True I have had the new Johnny Morris Signature series II in high speed model ( the black one) and I love that it has the old fashioned centrifiugal brake along with a super adjustable spool tensioner and magnetic brake it is almost idiot proof ( I know I have been considered the village idiot many a time) spooled with Trilene 12# flourocarbon and I am starting to favor it over my 1st generation Abu Revo STX without the new centrifugal brake,spooled with 20# power line braid,it casts more accurateley less backlashes lighter lures and reels a lot smoother about the only down fall is I don't like the drag as much as the STX's it is very noticalble when you set the hook on a large fish over 5#'s again this is just my opinion and I have Abu's since the late 70's Sorry I don't have any experience on Shamino's other than a few spinning reels from the late 80's![]()
