hi all - can u sugggest a reelto suit?
i have always used shimano baitrunners 8000's, most recently the gte-b's, which are excellent reels and never let me down when playing a fish. however, it has to be said that the line lay isnt great
i generally fix between margin work and top range i would say 90 yards, so i dont need a big pit reel, however, i am impressed with the way the line lays on them and want a reel with a longer (as opposed to deeper) spool
i mainly use shimano technium line in both 12 and 15lb, as well as riverge reel soft fluro
the super baitrunners i dont think are worth the additional money over the 8000's and have deeper as opposed to longerspools.
the fox looks a good bet and i have had a play with it buti am dubious as the 10000 was its first reel and i have read many issues on quality
the daiwa linears are another option, but i have never seen a set in the shop only on line stores. alternatively,shimano have bought out a new mini big bit reel, the ultegra, but it has a front br spool, which i have never used
has anyone used any of the three, or have alternative sugestions for me to consider
appreciate your honest opinions - trouble with magazines is that they are say everything is bloody marvellous and you know that cant be true!
