    Hi Willie, great review video. They both seemed to work really well. 👏
    You caught fish and no major problem with either.
    Great job catching fish.
    I'm waiting to see if the fishing is good at the camp grounds. I hope so.
    Tell Chris, Evan, Lucas Hi and Boo meow.
    Take care and stay safe till next time.
    ❤❤❤❤❤

    Hey Willie! Thanks for taking the Sprint 235 for a test drive. It looks like a fairly durable and practical reel.

      @@AndyCortez-r6b I would file that reel in the “fishable” category.. not the greatest but in the middle between a 115 and a Citation..

    I had a Johnson Sprint last year that I ended up selling. It seemed like a revamped Century with a graphite body. While it performed very well I still like my Century 100B much better.

      @@ddselvig I feel like the quality just “ok”… it has slop issues and if you tighten the side plate screws barely beyond snug, it’ll pull the female side through the plastic.. so all in all, it works but I wouldn’t be concerned about owning more of them..

    Good episode, Willie, but the duck got away! The 140 seems to be a really good reel and the Sprint did good too. Did you say that the button on the 140 sits really high? Also Miss Sophia said, "He seems to get really good casts with light lures! I wonder what weight/length rod he is using?" We enjoyed watching, as always, so keep those new videos coming out! : )

      @@harryhoward3064 🤠I almost got that duck!
      The 140 button doesn’t have much of a sliding board feature like the Johnson 100B.. it sits up a bit high but I got use to it. Miss Sophia is very observant 😉..
      I use mostly 6’6” Medium Berkley Lightening Rods 8-14lb line.. but I had 6lb line on both of those reels.. the Whopper Plopper was a size 90 and it’s pretty heavy so it does go pretty far..
      The other lures were the typical 1/16th oz squirt jig w/ the crappie max BPS Threadfin Shad and a small/medium size worm hook with a 1/16th oz split shot about 6-8” above the hook..
