Recommend Me a Reel

[pratty117]

Hi Peeps
I'm in the market for a new reel and i was hoping i could pick a few brains. I'm looking for a 3000 size float/feeder reel that will cover the bulk of fishing i do. I mainly float fish light for silvers, perch and tench. I'd also like the new reel to cope with some light feeder fishing too. I currently have a Drennan series 7 float reel and the spare spools are useful but i'm looking for something a little different and am happy to spend up to £100.
Any pointers/advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
Adam

Have a look at cadence, good value for money in my opinion.

I was going to buy a Cadence reel,one thing stopped me,the gear ratio,I find reels with ratios faster than 5:1 cause issues with line twist,particularly hooklinks,so didn't buy,I can't understand why a variation of ratios aren't available,especially when they make several different reels....
