A couple of years ago I had Daiwas, Shimanos, Quantums, Pfleugers, BPS and Revos. Been slowly moving towards all Daiwas.

The current Daiwa line-up is 4 Fuegos, 3 Alphas, 3 Millionaires, 2 153 HSTAs, a Zillion, a TD-X and 2 Capricorn spinners.

I still have 2 Revo STXs, 2 Quantum Energy PT spinners, and a Pfleuger Supreme spinner in the non-Daiwa line-up.

I usually get my reels when I see a good deal, or when I just want to try out out during my search for "the perfect reel".

As of now I'm using 2 Fuego Lefties, a Curado 100D, a Zillion 100HA and an old model Fuego 2000 spinning reel, all mounted on a variety of rods.

Sitting in my closet are Fuego righties, Citica D's, a Revo STX and a pair of Trion GX-7's.

Every single one of my reels is a Shimano execpt one Revo which I got because of the Wiley promo

I'm way behind most of you in numbers. Just started using baitcasting reels this year. Like most mine were purchased because of price. 2 Fuegos from TW on closeout. Wish I could have bought more of them. ;D Zillion 50th, '09 STX, Alphas ito, Cabela's Prodigy with a Procaster being delivered today.

The Procaster is one of two RH reels and is suppose to be for my oldest grandson. If he doesn't want it, then it will be mine. :)

The other rightie is on my dedicated cranking rod at the suggestion of a friend based on what rods I owned at the time.  It is the ito.

My wish list is for more TDZ reels, a '10 Premier and a few Shimanos. ::):D

2 Citica 201E's, 3 Curado 201E7's, one Castaic 201.... All but one on Dobyn's rods, but the Excell 7116 will soon be handed over to the wife and replaced with a Champion 805. My two spining reels are shakespeare inspinity's, same as the Pfluger President spinning but only $36 at Wal-Mart   :)

I have Abu's, an Ardent, Daiwa's, and BPS. The Diawa's and BPS collect dust in the garage. I just like the way the Abu's feel versus the other 2 brands

I own reels by six different manufactures.  My favorite reel is still the old Lews Speedspools but parts are not to be had. Sooooo, made the move to the Revo line up and have been very happy. There are so many superb products out there, you can't really beef any of them.

All different!
