Penn Surfblaster vs Penn Affinity?

[carlrmc]

Lads can anyone tell me the general differences between these reels?

 

[topbanana]

Few more bearings in the affinity and that's about it mate.

I'm tempted to just say - "nothing"
Not worth swapping/upgrading your surfblasters for if thats what your thinking

 

[Philthebag]

Agree with Liam if your looking at upgrading pay the extra for a spinfisher 7500lc superb reels for the money

I have an affinit'y 7000,cracking reel for clean ground use imo,but for u lad s fishing the ruff would be better with the spinfisher,built like a tank....

Did you get any line twist

 

[paul221280]

No mate. Not the reel that causes line twist, make sure you use the right size swivel and that should normally see you ok.
