hi guys, ive decided to buy a baitrunner reel but i cant decide between the korum kxi freespin or the korum method runner. 1) what are the positives and negatives of each reel? 2) which do u think will last longest? 3) do they come with spare spools and how much are extra spools? 4) does anyone know the capacity of each reel? 5) which would u recommend and why ok so the waters i usally fish are weedy with lots of carp, tench and perch amongst others. apparently the carp go up to 40lbs and on the other water 35+
the method runner seems more specialised, is it?
sorry for so many questions guys tightlines

Have a look at this...
Wychwood Solace 10 ACS Reel

I've got three and love 'em to bits.
Cheapest price I've seen anywhere (although when I bought mine they were doing a special offer of £49.99 each).
The prices do go up and down on that website with alarming regularity, so worth just watching them for a while

I have a couple, but they're too heavy for general use, I feel. It really depends whether you intend to specialise for the bigger carp. If the answer's no, then a smaller reel's probably a better choice. I like the look of the Okuma Trio baitrunners; if their older reels are anything to go by, they should be bomb-proof.
