thnx

mark

Pflueger President 6730 or if you want a really nice ultra light setup the 6725

i have a Shimano Sahara, 59.99 new about a year ago. On sale for 49.99 at Cabelas and ***, im pretty sure they are at Dicks as well. Shimano Symetre (dont have one but have heard great reviews) is on sale for i believe 69.99 if you would consider higher, from what ive heard the symetre is a big step up from the sahara for a (relatively) small sum

Well I jumped ship on Pflueger Bait casters in favor of BPS Extremes, I am very happy with that choice

But after trying the BPS and 2 other brans I have to say hands down

The Pflueger Preidents and Trions are the best valued reels under 60 bucks

I second the Shmano Sahara, I have four right now and rarely use my other more expensive ones.

Yup I would have to say Sahara.  I have the larger 4000 that I use for inshore saltwater and I love it.  My wife uses the 2500 Sedona which is nice, but the bale acts up from time to time and it is not as smooth.

A few good buys out there (as stated), i would add that don't go smaller than a "2500" size. The spool is too small in diameter which causes mayhem with line twist,etc. I love my Trion.
