Customer Reviews

Ah, the timeless and enduring Zebco 202, the ownership of which is as essential a rite of passage for American youth as sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Nearly 40 years ago, at the tender age of seven, the mighty 202 was my first fishing reel and worked like a dream in terms of use and maintenance for a kid for whom mechanical aptitude and patience were in very short supply. Its simple push-button casting is easy for kids to master and it's robust enough for them to haul in small panfish, perch, catfish, and bass hand over fist. Setting the drag and changing line is also a breeze. Believe it or not, I still have mine and it works perfectly, which bodes well for my son who is just now showing an interest in angling. Now if someone could just invent something which guarantees a fish with every cast...

First off: I don't use this reel for fishing.
I built a HAM radio antenna launcher kit from the Joplin Amateur Radio Club and the addition of a spincast reel was required.
Basically, I have this thing attached to the end of a PVC pneumatic antenna launcher. When you fire the launcher projectile, the line trails out of the reel for recovery over trees or high objects.
I replaced the 10lb line with 15lb and have had no issues.
I consistently get smooth launches and line recovery works well. No issues yet.
For $10 I couldn't find a better deal.
If you need a reel for launching goodies up into the trees, look no further :-)
