Hey i was just wondering what is your favorite reel. i use shimano ix400r reels and i havent ever had anyproblems with them. also a while back there was a post about red fishing line i was wondering if any of you had tried it and if it was any good.

at present a quantum bait caster mated to a quantum 6' 6" quantum med/heavy rod has caught me a fair amount of bass and a musky this year just picked up a rihno bait caster that i also like

I love my Shimano Stradics and Calcuttas. I will be moving up to a Chronarch Superfree this year.

I'm using a Diawa Regal right now, but some of the reviews I've read have me wanting to try out the Stradic's.

My favorite now is the Quantum catalyst PTi 20. It's a great all around reel. Fast return ratio that is nice for spinners on streams, and it holds a decent amount of line so I can use it for Wipers.

I don't know about favorite reel, I never payed much attention to features before and have always bought the cheaper models. They have done fine for me in the past.

Recently I was looking to purchase a "better reel" and I came across one that is sold by Bass Pro Shops. They bost that it may be the most advanced reel ever made. The sale price is $29.88. I purchased one and should get it sometime this week.

Anyone have any experience with this reel or other Bass Pro Shop Reels?

I think this is the one Tincanfish just bought and he loves it.
