Never fished with the Lew's so I cant really comment on them. All my reels are shimano, baitcasting and spinning. Yes Shimano reels can be more expensive than the Lews but they can also be cheaper(you get what you pay for). The curados have always been a good reel, the new ones this year have gotten bad reviews but the new cronarchs are around the same price as the Lews and are very similar to the last curados.


As far as rods I fish topwater with a 6'6" medium action fast tip spinning rod, and I throw plastics with either a 7' or 6'6" M or ML. I have a 7' stickem ML rod and have been very happy with it. Other brands I own are shimano, kistler, and H&H

Stickem also just came out with a line of reels you might want to check them out. I fished with one the other day and was impressed
