Fred,

I have being itching to try out the 275 but since rare afraid if break it. Would you have parts if needed.

Most of the 275 parts are the same as the 270, James —

But for our members I have most parts for the 275's also.

My recommendation would be to use the 2-Speed DQ 275.

You will be amazed at its capabilities and you will likely find it a pleasure to fish and master the functions.

If you don't use it — it is just a green paperweight with a red knob on it.

Both you and the 275 deserve a chance to get out on the water together.

Best, Fred

James,

FANTASTIC CATCH of a Snook!!!!!

I've fished out of Marco Island, FL fishing SE into the Everglades area.

Caught PLENTY of hard fighting Snook, about the size between your hands in your photo.

What is the length of your catch???   

Keep fishing!!!
