Looking.for a new reel.
 

Im looking into getting a new setup of a rod and reel..im open to all ideas on what you think is a great reel that will last a good while..fishing in big lake and.prien if thats needed

curado/shimano rod. cant beat the quality of the reel and the lifetime warranty of the rod. My basic setup is a curado 50E with a cumara but you may wanna stick with something lower on price rodwise.

Lews reels are really nice !

Saltwater friendly??? I have a 5:1 but it's strictly a freshwater setup.

what are you looking to spend? that will play a big factor in guidance.

Lew reels can you point.me towards a good one I heard about those. Money just.for a reel id like to spend 100 to 200 no more than that

I just got an Outcast Reel from the Stick'Em Rods people. Great reel, very smooth and retails for 150.00.

Dang, you already got the hook up on one of those?

Loving it also! :D

It's a great reel

I have a tourney pro speed spool that is a good reel and has stood up to abuse for a year now. There are several great reels in your price range - Shimano Citica, Curado, and Chronarch. Lew's tourney pro, etc.

For the money, the Citica is a darn good reel.

Yes ! Havent had problem yet ! I have the tournament pro speed spool !

Contact Anthony Beslin (Rigratnomeaux) with Duce Rods. He can hook you up with a sweet custom rod and a Lews reel.

i know it's on the upper end of what you want to spend, but to me the shimano Chronarch CH200e7 is probably the best bang for the buck in that range. it's pretty much screw for screw the exact same as the Curado CU200e7 that everyone loved and raved about. they're awesome reels.

if you want to stay more around the $100-150 mark, i would consider the lew's speed spool or tourney speed spool. my customer reviews have been very good and i haven't had any complaints about them yet.

feel free to pass by the tackle box here in sulphur and we can talk at length about what will work best for you. :)

very nice reel... made a few casts with it the other day

I used a Lews Speed Spool today and it was sweet, I will be buying one in the near future

Stop by the house tomorrow and try my new Outcast reel. You might just change your mind.

will have to do that, maybe afternoon if I see your truck.....Lews is still a fine reel;)

I'm sure it is but this sucker is really sweet.

I should be here.

I got mine in today and it is smoooooth. I spooled up and cast it at my dads pond. That thing will sling it! So far so good.

Take your line off first. If he just touches it will instantly backlash.

Might want to check out the US Reels. I use the super caster spinning reels and if their casting reels are as good as their spinning reels you won't be disappointed.

you one to talk, you are the only person I ever seen strip line by hand after every cast:eek:

Take a look at the Pflueger Patriarch 71LP. Since I tried it out last fall, it's been one of my favorite reels.

I got a citica and shimano convergence combo, great warranty on rod, and got both for less then $200 and I use it in both salt and fresh.

I think I will take a look at the stick em rod reel first.can someone tell me a good stick em rod rod to get that is light and sensitive l, reasonably price. Also where can.i get some stick em products close to Lake Charles

The rods are sold at The Tackle Box in Sulphur and Cajun FastMart south of Sulphur on Hwy 27.

Do you want a trout rod or a red fish rod?

The stick'em light wader is awesome !

The rod will be for specs and red in biglake amd prien..nothing offhsore..can the reel be bought at those places in sulphur

Not sure, I'm trying to find that out right now.

we dont have the reels yet... dont know what the hold up is.. will have to ask longcast he is this area's rep for stick-em

the outcast reels are very similar in design to the wright-mcgill sabalos baitcaster. i played with one at the stick em party a couple months ago. nice reel. we have all actions in the rods in stock, tail special, wader lt, red special
