New Reel Help!

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

New Reel Help!

Post by AverageAngler »

Hey Gang,
I am looking into a new real for a 6' spinner. I have always used Shimano reels, but am now looking to seek new one. Any suggestions as to whats hot and whats not and why? Thanks All,
Cheers'

I like the new Quantum PT series of spinning reels. I have both the Kinetic and the Catalyst and I like them both. Very good reels for the money IMO.

Hope this helps some.

I too have the Quantum Kinetic. Absolutly love it. Smooth, well balanced and confortable.

Then again, all my reels are Quantum exept for my Abu Garcia Cardinal Agenda, so it's hard for me to compare with anything else.

Quantum also has that warranty that if it takes more then 48 hour to fix your reel, they will provide you with a replacement.
