Thanks for the reply, I think that might be a bit out of my price range.  How much you asking?

I just bought a new Allen Kraken for $200. There was a discount if you sign up for their newsletter as well.

Good luck with the Kraken especially size 3.  I went through 3 of them and own none anymore.

If budget is tight, I would highly recommand the Allen II.  I had one and it was a work horse without a single issue.  Can't recommand the Allen III as I have never used it.

I plan on using it for coho. I would be very surprised if it went down.

All mine were sent with defected, or improperly functional drag. So if yours are good to start with, i am sure it will be fine.
