I have Shimano,Daiwa,ABU Garcia and Pflueger reels. :-/

I have St. Croix,Shimano,Daiwa,G Loomis,Berkley and 3 customs from Reel Mech for rods.

ALL my reels have Berkley XT on them, so except for the line, I guess I'm a brand whoore. :)

I was a Shimano guy many moons ago. Now I'm a Flooger dude. Don't bother asking why, it don't matter. A few years from now it may be different. I own rods by St. Croix, Daiwa and BPS. The St. Croix is my first high falutin' rod and I'm happy with it.

Powell rod guy

Abu Garcia Revo guy

And the occasional red headed step Kistler.......................... ;D

Flooger reel guy with a couple Garcia's thrown in.

All Star rods all the way.  

My prefered Brands are:

Pflueger, Quantum and Daiwa reels in that order.

St. Croix and All Star Rods.

Stren line.

I was a 100% Shimano Guy until all of this Daiwa has rubbed off on me. So now I am a Shimano/Daiwa Guy and a 90% Loomis GLX guy although I do own Kistlers, Falcon's (love their cranking rods) and Castaways and just bought a G Blanks Custom that seems to be a really good rod.

Just a MOOK, %@&* these threads, I am a non participant anymore, they go nowhere >:)

Shimano Reel Guy.

St. Croix and G.Loomis rod Guy.

    Quantum reels

    Shimano rods.

I'm a "whatever I like" guy. I do fall for one brand over another but basically what works for me.

And for lack of better terms... I prefer "Brand X" lol

I have everything from a steez to a abu c4 on my boat, and when my mom comes to town I have a 33 alongside them.

Oh...Don't be a sourpuss, people are just having fun. Next time we get

together, I'm fishing with you and I'll be a Flooger Guy or a Cabela's Guy

or whatever brand YOU are fishing. I hope you make it out here for the

Roadtrip.

Make it out where? Has there been a posting about next year's road trip? If so, direct me to the thread, oh wise moderator. :)

Nevermind.  How did I miss that.  It had so many posts I just assumed it was for last year's road trip.  

for line im deffinately a berkley guy. trilene xl and xt are the lines ive always used and never had any complaints. tracerbraid has been added to the list as well.

Shimano/quantum for reels.

Shimano rods

Rapala Cranks all the way

Other than that not very brand specific.  I tend to lean towards Yamamoto and Strike king though...

Pflueger/Fenwick guy here.

Shimano reels, dobyns or powell rods, seagur line, GYM plastics, lucky craft hard baits. Oh and mattlures, huddleston,and 3:16 Swimbaits.  8-)

I'd normally would say that Muddy had it right but amazingly enough no one has taken a pot shot at any one's choices

How about a big BassResource.com round of applause?

Depends on the reviews I read here.

Reels- Reviews are good and the price is right, I will get anything. I have a flooger spinning reel, and was looking at a shimano baitcaster. Ended up with a diawa.

Rods- Once again reviews, I heard the falcons were pretty good, so I bought a falcon. I heard St. Croix's are good so I bought a St. croix.

So, I guess I am a Zoom, Gammy, Diawa, Flooger, Falcon, St. Croix, trilene, Rebel, Strike king, Booyah, etc... etc..

I just like a good deal.

            -gk

I own a little bit of everything... i am also a deal *****

Reels:abu/quantum.... I just don't have the money to buy more abu's

Rods: Carrot sticks/kistler... but still searching my options

Mono: Sufix.

Flouro: Seaguar/cabelas

Plastics: Rage Tail/tiki/Berkley

Crankbaits: I hate them, but lucky crafts when I have too

Spinnerbaits: Terminator/booyah

Underwear: hanes boxers

Quantum rods and reels.

Strike King

Zoom

Berkley

Stuff has worked for me for a long time.

Ambassadeur(60),and Phenix(20) guy!

10 years ago I was Abu Garcia/Shimano guy.

Last year I went all Revo reels and BPS Pro Qualifier rods.

I'm dumping my Revos now and I'm thinking about going all Shimano after trying out a 2009 Curado.
