Store reels and rods who makes em?
that's because bps bought the rights to the browning brand name.all the browning reels are made by pflueger as far as i know.browning was owned by quantum and at that time all their reels were made by quantum.

Most Sensitive MH Baitcast Rod?
guys,he said under $200.i have to say a johnny morris signature series.then again an ugly stick with braid is more sensitive than an exspensive rod with mono.

jerkbaits with a spinning setup?
you can snap straight down with spinning giving the jerkbait better action.it's also more comfortable to me.i p[refer baitcasting for most applications but not for jerkbaits.

great rod.

Power Pro Phantom Red
why is it people laughed at cajun red cast but powerpro puts out a red line and it's great?i have been saying red was good for years and that it greys out and blends in.red cast will do this even faster than powerpro.if the braid turns pink just recolor it with a red permanet marker.

Tackle Tour Flurocarbon Line Test
i've been trying to tell guys for years that flouro doesn't have any less stretch than mono.if i want a low vis line i wil use cajun red cast and save my hard earned money while getting better knot strength and easier handling line.if i want a braided line i will use sufix.

Poor soul looking for good/inexpensive reel

All hail the Zillion!!!
people have to learn just a micro drop will do.not the whole container of oil.i still think guys who never do any maintenance and then complain the reel gets rough are the worst.all mechanical things need some maintenace.

All hail the Zillion!!!
i think it wouldn't hurt.the guys who built it should know what maintenance it needs.

$100+ Spinning Reels
pflueger could build the best reel in the world but mktrout would hate it. the reel was just released so the chance of anyone other than a pflueger pro having used the reel long enough to make a qualified judgement is slim to none.
