Just got the BSR852 SENKO GLX spinning rod have not got a reel for it yet. I have a Loomis DSR822 drop shot spinning with a Diawa Fuego 2000 Spinner and love it! Are the spinning reels that are higher end of a Fuego like a steez or stella worth it? I have 4 quatum energy pti20's don't mind'em but a bit on the heavy side and don't really care for the way the bail works- especiallly since I got the Fuego for my DSR822. I am pretty set on reel size and that would be 2500 to a 3000 series 6-12lb test reel. Any thought would be appreciated. I fish for smallmouth and largemouth here in southern Idaho.

When I faced this decision, I almost bought the stella... I've never heard anyone say it wasn't worth the money.  I on the other hand, decided that the Fuego 3000 was a better reel for me... still high end but the cost of your new GLX rod cheaper than the stella.

One of these days, I'll pony up and try the stella but for now I am VERY pleased with the Fuego.  It's a matter of cash, if you have a few hundred extra dollars burning a hole in your pocket, I bet you'll love the stella as much as everyone else does!

You're in a good spot, regardless of your choice, it is a good decision.  ...lol

I have a Stella and YES, if you can afford it, it's worth it. JMHO

Let me put it this way: If you buy a Stella, you will end up getting rid of all your other spinning reels.

As powerful as that statement is, it might also be the only reason not to get the Stella.  However, if you have $2K or so sitting around to replace the fleet... go for it!!
