mozy Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Well I'm in the market for a new reel and was wondering what you guys would suggest. I just got an amazing deal on a G Loomis IMX 6 1/2" L and need to outfit it with something decent. This is my first "good" rod and unsure what to set it up with. I was looking at possibly getting the Pflueger Supreme XT in the 9020 series. I don't know if I should look into a Shimano and possibly find a bit smaller reel? I really like the feel of the Pflueger, but have no experience with anything high end. This is my first attempt at a species-specific rod and want to get it right the first time. Any info or opinions would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Johnson Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I would go with a 1000 series Shimano. They balance out the best with that rod... which is a great pannie rod might I add Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I'm with Matt on this one... depending on what you want to spend.. I would check out the Saros, or Sahara. If you were looking for a smaller reel, check out the 750size as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
