Ritz Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 Which baitcast reel would you buy for between 180-240 dollars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Its really going to depend on what you want to do with that reel. What are you going to be fishing for... I suppose if I had to pick I would choose the Shimano Chronarch. I hgave 4 of them. and love em. I just got a new Curado as well and cant wait to try it.Quantum as you mentioned also makes a great reel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritz Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 Using the reel for, you know, bass fishing with t-rigs, carolina rigging, crankbait fishing.....Gear ratio of 6 so you know it will be ALL AROUND fishing.... gear ratio of 7 is only good for t-rigging...

Wayne Ek Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I fished the prototype of the new Quantum Burner (TE1170PT)I used it on every application that I normally fished 6.3:1 reels on and found it worked great on all of them. It really shined when it came to picking up line fast while C-rigging or cranking lipless baits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ritz Posted March 26, 2006 Author Share Posted March 26, 2006 I guess 200 dollars is too much for most people for a fishing reel lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy j Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I would go with the Curado, No need to spend another $80. I will be going with the new Citica's that run for $120. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trelipe_King Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 The Abu-Garcia Ambassedeur is a great reel. I got the 6500. They are real durable, my dad still has two of them from his dad too. I think they go for about $60 to $100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
