I was speaking to a friend the other day who told me that I was letting the side down because I had come against Shimano and was now pushing Daiwa in the reel stakes.
I told him that I had no brand loyalty and that I bought what I deemed to be the best in terms of value for money and performance at the time.
"Well I could never be like that", he said. "I stay with a make all my life."
But yet, I thought, how silly.
It reminds me of those who use ancient old reels like Mitchells and claim that they are the best. I often wonder why they don't drive around in Model T Fords or velocipedes.
Modern stuff IS better, and those that stick to one brand name are doing themselves a dis-service.
Are you a brand slave?
