Question
fishphinder
I was out last weekend and a big strike while I was trolling finished off my Abu Garcia 6500 C4. I have two 6500's (now only one) and now need to get a new reel. I have only been Musky fishing for three years and have never used anything but the 6500. That big strike breaking my reel combined with the bad things I have been hearing about the Abu Garcias will keep me from getting another Abu so I am looking for recomendations from anyone who knows about Musky sized reels to help me find something I can depend on. I am ready to spend the big money on a good reel but want to make sure I get the right one. I have looked at the Shimanos but I don't know which one will fit my needs. I do throw the big bladed bucktails so I want something that can handle them but I also thow smaller baits and slower top waters. Any advice from a fellow Musky fisherman is greatly appreciated.
