But the Daiwa Crossfire LT is a highly rated budget spinning reel, that performs just as well ( and in some cases better ) than reels twice as expensive

While this type of reel is popular for beginners, it is not the best reel for performance

I put a small amount of grease on the gears and I think it will be even better
