I wanted to see how far this would go, before I answered anything.

So lets answer some concerns, or false claims..

1- Canyon Reels were never MADE IN THE USA. From day 1, Canyon has said they are ASSEMBLED IN THE USA. Some guys like to twist this around to their advantage. The 2 words do not mean the same thing. If it makes you feel better, many parts for Canyon are actually now made in The USA. SO whats the difference between a reel assembled in the USA with US & foreign parts, and a reel that is Made in The US, using foreign parts? Because a well known reel that boasts they are Made in The USA is actually using parts in their reels from overseas. The same company that told everybody Canyon wouldn't last 2 years ...... and that was about 5 years ago.

2- The reviews of the reels ...... well....... take them and $2..... and you can get a coffee maybe. These reviews were done on sample reels, prototypes, and even if they are done on a reel that is sold to the public, they hold no merit compared to a charter boat that is fishing the reels everyday. The couch fisherman with a full time job & his review websites.... well he is nowhere as experienced as the guy who is using the reel daily as far giving you a review on the performance and power of the reel. In addition..... these guys all have ties to somebody and I dont bother wasting my time reading this stuff. Everybody is different and we all like different things. Nobody is going to convince me a reel I have used for 7 years now is no good because he said so. Thats a good one.

3- Anybody with $$ can buy OEM Reels. BUT...... good luck finding parts in 5 years for that reel. Canyon has parts, warranties and excellent service when it comes to this end of the business. All brands have had issues here and there. NONE of them are perfect! Canyon has not had any negative customer service issues that I know of yet.

If your an educated buyer..... you would go to the Canyon Reels website, and see who is using the reels and what they are using them for. You will find that the reels are on some very impressive boats, used daily and even on a Fishing Show on NBC Sports Channel for over 3 year snow. Or, of you dont want to believe what is right in front of you, ..... you can always believe 1 man who is not out fishing everyday. That's up to the fisherman himself to decide, I guess. But for me..... I trust the guy fishing on the water daily, over the couch fisherman.

The claim that Canyon is an OEM Reel, not modified at all ..... is false. This has been the same claim, by the same reviews and people for a while now. I enjoy seeing it over and over again. I get to shoot holes in it each time.
