Zebco spincasts were always an inexpensive, well built starter reel for new fisher people. Check out the Zebco Bullet. Only $140. ???

Sounds like a good investment to me; last year they were 100 bucks! I bought mine 3-4 years ago when retail was $100. Got it from Cabela’s on sale for $79 and love it. They go on sale every year, so watch the flyers!

Yeah Randy, just checked last year's price, $99.95 . It could be worse, it could have doubled, like Gas.

I checked on line and saw them for 99 dollars at Walmart. I have used Zebco 33's for night cat fishing but never liked the drag on them. Hopefully for over a 100 the bullet drag will be better.

Here you. Who ever thought we'd see Zebco's at this price 😲
So the regular Bullet went from $100 to $110, and the new MG is the $140 one.

3.65 in my part of NJ. If the Keystone XL was open we could get about 800,000 barrels a day from Canada instead of buying it from Russia. The pipeline was not shut down for environmental reasons. It was so some could move on trains which is 3 times the cost. Warren Buffet is a major share owner of some of the rail roads.

Both of those are new models. The 5.1:1 is the one I have with 8+1 bearings and brass gears. All metal body.
I’m not sure if that $110 one has the 5.1:1 gear. It doesn’t say in the new catalog. The $140 one DOES have….
In the past they’ve only had one Bullet model….
