  • I have a few favorites reels. But truth be told, my favorite just may be whichever one I happen to be using whenever I'm connected directly to one of these  ~ In this case - it was a r

I think I need to clear my eyes. I saw the words of your last sentence but in my mind’s eye I read it as, “I’m getting married with it.” ?

 

I love my 20 Rapala 6sxi for spinning and my Curado 101d for casting. For salmon I love my Cardiff 301a. 

 

 

Fishing standpoint: Exsence DC

 

Looks: Revo Elite Aurora 64 Limited

Since I have to pick, I like my Pro Max 3600 for steelhead, my 4500CS Rocket for bass, and my 6500CS Rocket for pike and musky.

Lew's Tournament Pro G, I have three of them in two different ratios.

Baitcaster: Lew's Tournament MB

 

Spinning: Lew's Custom Pro Speed Spin

 

Another Tatula SV here, but that Tatula 100 is moving up the ranks.

It's tough to pick one favorite, they all have their place. If I had to, I'd pick my Abu Record 40 (modified with 2BB levelwind and 2BB cog wheel).

I don’t have a favorite reel. A good reel is invisible to me. If I’m thinking about my reel when fishing, it’s because it’s not working properly. It’s hard to say a reel is exceptional because it does what it’s supposed to do. 

My favs are my gen 3 Revo SXs and my Lew’s Tournament Lite Speed Spool. I just picked up a Daiwa Tatula SV TW so that could change soon though.......

I haven't been able to pick just one for any of these threads over the last few years.  Whenever I try I wind up with a list longer than I'd like.

 

New-2-me not long ago and headed toward the top:  Older Steez and Exsence DC.

Ones with more use: Zillion 50th Anniversary, PXL Type R, Primmus, Helios Air, TD-Z 105H

New in box, but don't see how it could miss my 'favorites' list.  Scorpion 71 HG

Baitcasting - Shimano Core 50mg7

Spinning - Shimano Rarenium Ci4+ 2500FB

For me,

Baitcaster: Johnny Morris Platinum Signature Series

Spinning: Pfleuger President

For 2018, my favorite bc reel was my Chronarch MGL HG.  For spinning reels it was my Stradic 2500 FJ.  Even though I have higher end reels, these two get the nod most of the time and why they are on my two most used rods.
