  1. Just got my 1st baitcasting set...Fenwick MH 6'10'' and JM Signature (6.4) reel. Before I bought that reel I read some v.good reviews about JM....but now I've noticed that a lot people complains that the JM is not durable....getting problems after short time of using. I will start fishing in about 2 months.....now I will practice to not get those birdnests too often...anyway....should I return/exchange the reel and get a Curado/Revo etc. .... Any new opinions about BPS Johnny Morris Signature Series? What is an ''avg lifespan'' of baitcasting reel ? ( LOL - what kind of question is that ?)
  2. taking a look at : Bass Pro Shops Johnny Morris...a bit cheaper then Revo STX.... but still dual breaking system and 10 bearings.
  3. Thank you for answers. yes I'm aiming for Vendetta.....but I think ( but still read a lot)...will stick with Revo STX...read that it has most beginner friendly break system I'm lefty,,,,should I buy reel that has a handle on the right side of the reel I guess...( hold spinning rod and cast using left hand).....as I see I want be able to change side of the handle on the reel as on my spinning reels....so better ask
  4. Hi everyone. My 1st post So I'm new to fishing (bought my 1st rod a year ago) I have 2 spinning rods, 6'6 with reels....Shimano Spirex RG 2500 and Shimano Sahara 1000.I fish only during summer..and I love it. I'm curious is there any sense to buy a baitcasting rod and reel... I think I would like it...but not sure....problem is I don't know anybody who is fishing with baitcasting gear.....so cant try. Another story is that I'm fishing maybe 10-15 times/year only during the summer, and as far as I know to ''master'' the baitcasting needs some time....and idea to spending like 300$(Abu Revo and some rod) and then spending my fishing time with line problems is not funny. Thank you. please help the newbie to decide.
