| I have a sustain right now that I have had for about 3 years and it is still going strong. I have had less problems with this reel than I have any others. Some would argue however that for the price, you can get better reels or that you can get better okuma reels for less price.
I once had a bad day of fishing, but it was still great! CHB: the few, the proud, the chosen |

| no lie sustains are way cool and a great piece of equipment my buddy has one...i don't spend that much money on a reels though and before you do take a look at the Peens new AF sereis i have an AF 4000 and it's off the chain cool about a 100 bucks and is way smooth and powerful and it's Peen so you no it will outlive any reel out there.............

| I used to have a Sustain....
I had a lot of problems with powerpro looping on the reel and causing lots of wind knots. I paddled up to a couple of guys fishing in a johnboat and asked them if they wanted to buy it for cheap. one guy looked at it and told me he would be interested if it was a Stratic. He and that reel were made for each other so I just gave it to him.
