I was disappointed this reel broke so radically after the 3 years. However your repair program is reasonable and efficient and the repairs were completed quick and thorough. So stuff happens and you made it right. Thanks.
Blown away by the customer service. I have 4 FFP reels. And they all have been perfect for the last 4 years. Had 1 issue & in 2 days a replacement part showed up!! U can’t say that for the other (big) brands. These guys are the best! Customer Service is AMAZING!!
For your money this has got to be the worst reel on the market. Out of the box it made a grinding noise, not sure if i was given a refurbished one or something but even a 20$ walmart reel is silent out of the box. I had a fishing tripped planned a few days after i got it so i stupidly took it out to fish instead of returning it, hoping it would get better. It did not get better. The thing feels horrible to reel due to the sand like feeling the gears have. Every time the bail makes a turn i feel a thump through the handle. It also casts 3/4th the distance my previous Shimano reel casts. Overall an extremely disappointing purchase, I thought i was getting a deal on a good reel but instead i spent 150$ on a piece of junk.
Love my new Salos! I fish in the Charleston SC area mainly for redfish, trout & flounder. It’s a smooth casting reel that holds up great to the species above. Great buying experience as well. I’ll be buying more FFP’s in the future for sure !
What a great baitcaster, great distance, so smooth, great drag- This baitcaster has everything you want- look forward to using this for years to come. Good Purchase and with FFP yearly service on reel should last a long time.
First trip out I hear the roller bearing non stop!! For The price point…. I’d rather buy a Shimano reel. It cast super well and line is really nice. But for $250. I’m gonna buy a Shimano. Sorry FFP
Absolutely Amazing Reels. Lightweight , super smooth performance , super smooth drag system. Sturdy and durable.
Highly recommend the CE Pros.
So awesome! The ghost braid in the Bahia 3000 is as smooth as I’ve ever casted! Lightweight but plenty of power. Caught a lot of pompano and trout in the setup and I love it!
I sent an older osprey ce in for service. After a few weeks, it still hadn’t arrived. I called and found it had been shipped to my old address. They sent me a new Bahia, and even spooled it with braid. I was shocked at how amazing the customer service was. The new Bahia is AMAZING, and I will never use any other braid. Its castability is incredible. Add a couple extra turns in your knots, it’s THAT thin!
I love this reel! Rugged, smooth and it cast a mile!!
I won't buy any other baitcaster in the future. Florida Fishing Products customer service is second to none.
They got my reel working perfectly, back to the original condition after it was submerged in saltwater/muck from hurricane Milton storm surge in my garage.
Yup! You read it right, a 31” snook on 10lb braid! From softness and smoothness, to an easy cast. This braid is durable and strong! My new go to braid!
Very impressive reel. Got my first one a couple months ago to try out for my customer reels. Purposely did not take care of it to ensure it can withstand a beating. No maintenance other than a quick rinse. After several trips it's good as new!
Florida Fishing Products real service is the only way we go at Southern Salinity Guide Service. From the quality of care to the amazing quick turnaround … outstanding customer service! That’s why we trust FFP with our business.
Impressed with how smooth casting this line is!
Great reel for the money, handle could be improved but overall seem to hold up well against the abuse of big fish
I own several FFP reels both inshore and offshore models and have given them as gifts to others. Once again this Bahia does not fail to impress . It's light feel and ultra smooth action are top shelf all the way and a full day off casting light jigs and plastics produced great results without fatigue or problems. Easily one of the best reels on the market, especially at this price point
Very happy with your product. My wife loves to fish so these are the reels I bought for her to use and she is happy with them. Weigth and function was what I was looking for in these reels and if my wife is happy I'm happy.
At first I was disappointed that I could not find a local shop to service the reel, which lead to online research. It was easy to send to FFP, the fee was very reasonable and the service was fast. Very satisfied!
Just like everything else I've gotten from FFP the power handle is top notch as well... Very well made and super smooth
