Abu MGX . it's the best casting reel I've used with any weight bait .

I was going to suggest that but his budget was more supreme xt.

oops , my mistake . I still believe most of the noise if from the line rubbing on the line guide. if you listen carefully you can hear it. if you use reels with different material line guides with the same braid you can hear they have different noise levels.also on a wide spool reel you can hear more noise when the guide is all the way to one side compared to when it is centered.

more noise - more friction. I hate it and i'm a braid lover.

pflueger supreme xt

how so ?first of all it's a 4 strand braid.4 strand braids are not as smooth as 6 or 8 strand braids.the smoother a braid is the less noise it makes.this is a fact.

i don't want to be a grown man .

maybe you need glasses ?

another guy didn't like it .that's 1 yeah and 1 nay

totally agree

I fish 832 on cranks through rocks with no abrasion resistance issues at all. 832 solves that issue as far as i'm concerned.

I USED TO USE THAT LINE.MY REELS AND ROD CORK TURNED RED.YOU CAN RECOLOR IT WITH A RED MARKER. THERE ARE MUCH BETTER BRAIDS SUCH AS SUFIX 832 OUT NOW.I'VE ALSO USED CAJUN RED CAST MONO.CAUGHT PLENTY OF FISH ON IT.I DON'T BELIEVE IN LEADERS.I NOW FISH STRAIGHT MOSS GREEN SUFIX 832 . I DON'T THINK FISH ARE LINE SHY.I'VE FISHED STRAIGHT BRAID NEXT TO GUYS FISHING FLOURO AND SEEN NO DIFFERENCE IN CATCH RATE.

I love them.i shortened the handle on one of my 6-6 rods so it's like a pistol grip and it is great for roll casting and working jerkbaits and top waters.

is this better ? I wanted to get away from the boring regular letters.that's why the option is available.

Abu Garcia service is second to none.i have a mgx that has gotten a little rough that I bought in February.called them today and they said send it to us and we will take care of it.i've researched and they almost always replace the reel.veritas rod breakage issues I take with a grain of salt.a really great rod for the money is the falcon bucoo microguide.you will not get a lighter more responsive rod in that price range.

because regular pp is one of the noiseiest lines ever made and I've never heard any one say this before.then again I haven't fished a veritas rod.also the noise people hear is mostly from the line guide on the reel and not the rod.

powerpro super slick or regular powerpro ? I will agree superslick is quieter than 832.

5fishlimit said it was.it's right in the quote in my post.

bill dance has stated he doesn't like glass crankbait rods. he prefers medium action graphite rods for crankbaits because he feels they are more sensitive. I think technique specific rods are way overated as many of us don't agree with what the rods are labeled as being good for.personally for most bass fishing I use 6-6 mh fast action baitcast rods and 6-6 mh spinning rods all loaded with braid.

i use an abu mgx 7.1 to 1

a spinning reel with a 7 to 1 will have a higher ipt than a casting reel of the same ratio because the spinning reel has a larger diameter spool. this is why most guys use casting for spinnerbaits and cranks.

no way 832 is noisier than old powerpro.

you worry way to much. just get out and fish.

try cleaning and lubing the spool bearings first.most reels come with a instruction book that tells you to lube them every few trips. most people ignore it and wonder why the bearings go bad.

you are so correct !!! suffix 832 all the way.
