| Customer Reviews: This is THE Best Spincast Reel July 13, 2010 C. Rohner You can't beat the Zebco Omega if you're looking for a spincast reel. It is made almost entirely of high quality, metal parts so it's only drawback is that it is a bit on the heavy side. I don't mind the weight because with it, you get quality you can both see and feel. The smoothness and quietness of the 6 bearings is unmatched by any other spincast reel I've ever used and the drag is simple to operate allowing for both a wide and granular adjustment. I was shocked at how far I could cast with it (must be the ceramic pins). I used it lake fishing my first time out (after putting new 6 lb. Trilene line on it) and was easily outcasting my brother in-law who was using a spinning reel.
At first I thought the price was a bit high for a spincast but the oscillating spool and quick-spool-change-out system make this reel worth every penny. These features, along with its superior casting performance make it every bit as good as a standard spinning reel with less maintenance. It is as easy to change out the spool on the Zebco Omega as any standard spinning reel. It comes with a spare spool out of the box and I found a couple of online stores that sell spare spools for about $5 each (shipping not included); thus, this reel could really take a workout on a marathon fishing trip.
I have also tried the Diawa Goldcast and, as far as I am concerned, there simply is no better spincast reel on the market. If you want the best product that will last you forever, buy the Zebco Omega.
One nice reel. July 2, 2010 coke828 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought two of these for my wife and little girl to use. They absolutely love them. I paired the reels with ugly stik rods and it is one sweet combo. These things cast like a dream and man at the distance, they easily cast as far as my open face reels (Pflueger Supreme XT). So, if you want a simple to use quality built reel, this is for you.

I have a fishing friend who uses spinning reels. I use this Zebco, and I out cast him easily! He has problems with his reels, and I just laugh and keep fishing!
I also have the Z02 on an ultralight rod. Love both of them. Oh, and did I mention you only need one hand to use these babies?
Excellent Reel!! April 18, 2010 Lawrence Meekins 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a GREAT spincast reel. It is built like a tank and easy to use. This reel will last me forever. Drag works great also. Yes, the reel is a little on the heavy side, but very low profile. Trust me, if you enjoy fishing without the hassle of overpriced gear that gets "rat's nests" every 5 minutes, this reel is for you. Great reel for having fun with the kids also.
So far - great! May 27, 2009 Katherine the very good (michigan) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Got the Omega reel for my birthday, I've used it a few times and it works great. With a heaver lure you can throw it a country mile. Very smooth retrieve. Solidly built, may seem heavy if you are used to the spinning reels. Works like the old school Johnsons from the 50s and 60s (not the cheap junk they make now). Try it, you'll like it!
