New Reel?

Post by whitebc »

I am looking for a new reel and would like some suggestions. I always used the Shimano reels, Calcutta 200B, Curado and Citica, but was wondering if there was a another reel just-as-good/better around the same size as these.

Thanks for the help,
Ben

ABU Garcia REVO Inshore :thumbup: :thumbup: If on a budget the Revo S is a very good reel as well.

I am pretty sure that you have to go fishing to need a new reel. When are we going? :-D Do you think a new reel will put a redfish on your boat? :lol:

I am a spincaster fan myself and like my Shimano Symetre a lot.

I'm loving my Quantum Boca series reel. I'd say check out the Boca and Cabo series, haven't read a bad thing yet, nor experienced!
