Lew's Bb-1 Pro Or Tourney Pro? Or Curado I

Featured Replies

Well what kind of baits are you going to be throwing? I have a Tournament Pro and its a great reel for light lures. BB-1 Pro was designed for heavier lures

It will be my only rod until I get another setup. I fish with everything, weightless senkos on up and I'm still finding new tackle to try so I really need something that will do everything until I can put together more technique specific setups.

I like the 95mm handle on the BB1 Pro but I like the dual breaks of the tourney pro. But Idk if I reapply need mag breaks but I'm not sure

What light of weightbcan the bb1 pro throw effectively

 

I don't own one, so I can't comment. The Tournament Pro can cast weightless senkos pretty darn good, though.

The Tournament Pro Speed Spool is a buttery-smooth reel with centrifugal and magnetic cast control, a super-smooth click-adjustable drag, and weighs about six and a half ounces.  It casts wonderfully, even with lighter baits.  I don't think you'd be disappointed....

 

Tight lines,

I just put my Lews tournament mg on a  micro magic and Its awesome.  My dad has curados, Lews for me.  The lews reel and its handle feel much better in your hand than a curado,  and they are smoother than a curado in my opinion. One of my pops curados has a pawl that is already worn and needs to be replaced, I am much harder on my reels and my lews just gets better as it  breaks in.  When you first buy a lews it will feel dry because it is, keep putting oil on it as directed and I swear it will keep getting better.  I throw weightless senkos, 3/8 spinnerbaits, texas and carolina rig worms and this rig is phenomenal.  I can literally balance it one finger.  This rig is so smooth due to the reel in conjuction with the alconite micro magic guides.  Hope this helps, im confident you will really like a any Lews paired with a micro magic.  I hear the BB1 and tourney pro are better and smoother than the tournament mg (mine)

I own both the BB1 pro and the Tpro. The Tpro is much more user friendly!! I wish I had bought the Tpro the first time. Now I own both. BUT I like theTpro best.

That Tpro is special! This comes from an old man that got his first BC reeel in 1958. I have'nt used them all, but I know a good one when I fish it. YMVV!

I foregot, put on the right rod and it will throw ANY bait you want to throw. Light or heavy!
