If thats what you call spoiling yourself.......

I'm a Lews guy, and listening to LMG, convinced me to try Shimano. I now have 3 Chronarchs and love em. Still use my Lews also. I guess I just love bass fishing and quality equipment to fish with.

Just a disposable reel. Next time buy a Shimano.

Great insight RW, thanks.

I stopped reading about half way down. But Ive owned several, diffrent Q's and since the PT stuff arrived havent had a issue.

1 thing though, quantum has one of the best warranty programs out there on the rods any who can only assume the reels are covered just as well but you have to fill out those warranty cards.

One reason I left Quantum is because of the constant "upgrade" of exsiting reels. Them and Kistler seem the worst at introducing new exsiting models seems like every year. As much as they do it they should just call a Energy reel a 2013 Quantum Energy PT, then a 2014, 2015 etc etc. Bought 4 years ago my now Wife, bought me a E770 for my b-day she paid $189.99 for it at a local shop. Fast forward to today, I got $75 out of it. I know a 4 year old reel is going to drop. But at the same time Quantums on somewhere between the 3rd and 4th Energy in that time frame. Any time that occurs if you want to sell your "2013" model better do so a few months before Icast! I dont know what year Abu introduced the Revo but they are just now on Gen 3. Can't speak for some other brands cos I dont follow them.
