My 5 year throws this underhand Quantim Ultra Light a champ. He has been using it for a few years. I have also caught many sac au lait on this set up.. I highly recommend this for any 5 yo.

thats the ones I am talkin about

Has he caught any reds on it?

Merc, they make some reels that are about 5:1 so they ain't real slow.

Do you know which ones.

My bad. Didn't catch that in the op. That reel couldn't handle a red. But it could prob stand up to specks

I would think that they make that style reel in a more heavy duty model though.

I think there are some Diawas and I have some Johnson's that I use sacalait fishing. Not sure about others.

Thanks buddy. Any info is appreciated.

Looks like the Zebco 888 is pretty heavy duty, anyone use these

Mine uses the sponge bob set up, it holds up quit well in salt water and it's easy to throw. Trust me I have been through at least 10 other models and this one has been the best, last at least 20 trips and they are cheap!

My son has a Zebco saltfisher 733, the combo came with 20# mono, 6'6". It can definately handle good size reds.
