Default Which Are The Best Reels?

Abu, Daiwa, Shimano, which is the best?They each have their pluses
and they each have their minuses. It's really a case of you pays your
money and you makes your choice! Each make of reel has it's devotees,
who swear by what they use themselves, even though sometimes they know
there are weak points, that could be improved upon. I even saw one
post to a forum, where a certain make of reel had a 'clicky' handle.
The devotee to this reel cured this problem by forcing some fishing
line into the gap to cure the problem. He then went on to say how
pleased he was with the reel.Albert.BWebmaster http://fishingcave.com

However, if you suggest to these misguided individuals that they post here
I'm sure we could help them.

I think as long as its not obviously cheap and nasty, then any reel - that
is cleaned and maintained - will give good service these days.

I have a 4500 Shimano Baitrunner that I use for bigger pike and carp.

A couple of Okuma Big Pit reels for lake carping.

A couple of Okuma Baitrunners for small pike and general spinning/lure
fishing.

A brace of small daiwas that I use for float fishing and ledgering/feeder.

And a Grice and Young that I use for trotting/pegging.
