I'm all ears.
Convince me.
Well, they are for kids first off as they are easy to use, just release your thumb lol. In all seriousness, nothing is wrong with them, same as an open face of bait caster, or fly reel. They all have there use. I tried bait cast once, nothing but spools upon spools of rat nests. Open face works for me I can cast really accuratly and I can cast really far if need be. IME I have had more rats nests in spincast reels then anything else, I would rather fish then tie new line. I also Have a few extra spools for my open face, such as different line weights or multiple of the same weights in case some thing happens
