Introduction: Back in 2017, Quantum debuted their new, from the ground up casting reel design for their renewed Smoke and PT Tour casting and spinning reels. These, new "S3" engineered reels were to usher in a new era for Quantum.

Call, does the flipping switch still operate as I recall? When activated the clutch is open as long as the thumbar is held down but as soon as the thumbar is released the clutch engages?
