[QUOTE="Deke, post: 332303, member: 4920"] Mind you I’ve never had the catch cover rattlesnake on my own house but have heard complaints. Of course I’ve had guys tell me they love them too which is great. A while back I was interested in the rattlesnake but gradually moved away from them based on guys I talked with. Some of the complaints was line getting stuck between the reel and the holder, that it’s not sensitive enough for really finicky fish, being difficult to leave a bobber on the reel, the spool not turning smoothly or effortlessly, and it not being very loud for heavy sleepers. The Rapala also is compatible with suffix spools so the spool of line can be placed directly into the rattle reel which I thought was at least interesting. I thought the reel seemed smooth, there’s a built in hook holder, and I liked the design overall. Obviously I don’t have any idea if they’re effective at all. [/QUOTE]
