Reviewed by: daniel dittrick ,  Mountaineer

Summary:
after my old reel broke i ordered a beautiful, golden, islander IR3. It took well over two months to receive it. I would have to wait until spring to use it. I ordered a second spool in the meantime. Alas, spring had arrived and I chose to go far to fish a lake with early hatches. The new spool flew off the reel on the first cast and went to the bottom of the lake. These are very costly reels and I was on a very costly trip and was not able to fish with the faulty product. Strike two Islander!
