1. Low Motor Power and Durability
Compared to modern brushless motors, older models have weaker output and are prone to overheating, especially when fighting large fish.
They often use brushed motors, which have wear-prone parts like carbon brushes, leading to a shorter lifespan.
2. Poor Battery Efficiency
Old reels consume more power, leading to shorter battery life.
They are also sensitive to voltage drops, which can cause malfunctions or weak operation.
3. Slow and Inconsistent Retrieval Speed
They cannot retrieve line quickly, which wastes time during deep-sea fishing.
The retrieval speed may fluctuate, making it difficult to maintain consistent line tension.
4. Inferior Drag System
Drag on older reels tends to engage unevenly and lacks smoothness.
This increases the risk of line breakage, especially when hooked onto big fish.
5. Limited Features and Hard-to-Read Displays
They often lack useful features like depth display, automatic stop, or memory settings—or those features are inaccurate.
LCD screens are often monochrome, dim, and hard to read in sunlight.
6. Heavier and Less Ergonomic
Many older reels use metal housings and are bulkier, making them more tiring to use for long periods.
7. Poor Water and Salt Resistance
Their water resistance is limited, making them more prone to salt damage and internal corrosion.
The electrical components lack proper sealing, so splashes or rain can cause failures.
8. Repair and Parts Availability Issues
Many old models are no longer supported by the manufacturer, making repairs difficult.
Replacement parts like motors and gears are often unavailable.
