Ultralight Reel Descicion
Hey guys im wondering what reel i should get, ive narrowed it down to these two reels. The Shimano sienna and the Pflueger trion gx. They're both the same amount of money and hold about the same amount of line. Its just the specifics, I like how the pflueger looks more. The pflueger comes with an extra spool and the sienna doesnt. If anyone has used or tried either of these please give me input! Thanks!

Walmart Stepped It Up, Amazing
d**n!! I wish my walmarts were like that! the best things mine have are these really old Quantum bait-casting rods, nothing over 20$ When ever i go out to get quality fishing stuff i go to dsg, which is a good 30 min ride from my house but i have a sports athourty pretty close with some decent tackle!

Quantum Exo Or Abu Garcia Revo Premier...or! Shimano Curado 200G
I'd go with the premier or the curado without a doubt. I've used my friends exo and i really don't like the feel of it. It feels like its made from cheap plastic and the free spool button is the thinnest plastic on it! i was afraid to press it!!

Right now at dicks sporting goods they're having a 25% off reels and the citica 200e was already on sale for 90 plus 25% off! It's a great reel for the price and if it's the floor model they take more off!

Best Rod Under $110?
I am looking for a good all around baitcasting rod. I've heard good& bad things about carrot stix wild, the abu Garcia veratas seems like it has very heavy action on all of the Rods but I haven't heard bad about them, and I haven't heard much about the st. Croix mojo bass, ive felt these things at the dicks near my house and I love them. But in your opinion what should I get?

Citica Making Weird Noise
Shimano said that i can try to take it apart to see what the problem is if i am good with reels, which im not , or i can send it to them and they will take a look at it, since i got it yesterday im still under warrantee all i will have to pay for is shipping both ways (hopefully) but incase you were wondering i got the reel as a compete steal, $45!! who would pass that up??

Citica Making Weird Noise
Thank you guys. I am going to call Shimano on tuesday when they are open. Even though the reel is last years model do you think they will still replace it?

Citica Making Weird Noise
Today i got a citica very cheap from dicks sporting goods, it was on sale and it was the last one in stock so they took more off the price. I got the floor model. it was in perfect condition. The reel works perfectly and smoothly. But when the reel is held horizontally(like normal) and you reel in it makes a loud geary noise. If anyone knows what i should do please tell me!

I really love the Curado, it is a very nicely made reel, very good quality and smooth I have never used the smoke but i have tried it in the store, it seems very good and close to the curado, i have a couple questions with this,(im talking about the 150) how much line does this hold, and does it have any kind of warente? And last of all the quantum energy pt vi, i have only seen pictures online of this reel and read not much about it, but i really like it, can you guys tell me any thing about it? and if you were wondering what i am going to use it for, i fish alot of lakes, normally just for bass, and ocassionaly chain pickerel. thank you very much!!
