I just got a new Daiwa Fuego LT 2500 and about half way done spooling I noticed the line bunching at the top so I re-spooled after adding a washer from the box and the line started bunching up towards the bottom. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am using 10 lb power pro braid.

I'll look into the sedona, the reel also may see some saltwater fishing on the occasion but I plan for it to be mainly just for bass.

I am looking for a $100 2500 size reel that I will use for freshwater applications. Any advise on a smooth and light reel in this price range? I have been looking at the Daiwa Fuego LT and BG, Shimano Nasci, and the Okuma Epixor which is listed at only $43 on amazon but I am unsure which to get.

Yeah the coastal would probably fit my uses of the reel better because for inshore I would be catching smaller snook, reds, specks, and jack crevalle and I would be catching bass in freshwater. The 200 size sets my needs for both so I will probably end up with the coastal. It retails for I think $230 and on amazon it is $150 so you can't beat that.

Have you looked at the Daiwa Lexa wn. It is the same price on amazon as the coastal is. I have looked at and like both

The censorship is real sadly. *** is not one of bassresource's sponsors so it is censored. And yeah it doesn't necessarily mean that.

fine you got me

Thanks for the comment! And yes I know the sizes of reels and I am looking for a 300 size for all round use saltwater/freshwater. I know that any reel can be used for fresh/saltwater but some reels will hold better than others due to a better design etc.

It is just because they are 300 size reels and the amount of people who have recommended those 2 reels

I checked out the Daiwa Coastal. For almost the same price on amazon would the Daiwa Coastal or Daiwa Lexa Type-WN be better? And would the Daiwa Lexa HD be worth jumping up to? The HD has good reviews

Thanks for informing me on this! I will keep the citica in mind. But would a reel designed for heavy saltwater use like a Daiwa Lexa or a Okuma Komodo be better than something that isn't? Because I have been looking at the Daiwa Lexa Type-WN and the Okuma Komodo SS (both around $200) for a 300 size reel. The Komodo also has a baitclicker.

I am also considering the Okuma Komodo SS and the Daiwa Lexa Type-WN 300 size

What is the difference with the Curado 70 and Curado K?

Yeah but I am just confused on why they wouldn't say that it is for inshore on the shimano site like they do with the Curado K and the Casitas

Im on the gulf coast but is the Citica saltwater approved? It doesn't say on Shimano's site If the "bright orange zero ball bearing reel" is worth the hype it SHOULD be a great saltwater reel as well. I hope you know what I mean by that since the company is banned from being mentioned on this site.
