My only favorite brand is Shimano reels ;)

Logically, how can the vast majority of us really have favorites.  I'm sure most of us haven't come close to trying every brand that is out there.  Maybe someone like Raul has come close.  Essentially, we just provide what we use that we like as our favorites. 

This is the equipment I use right now that I like the most.  (Subject to change every few months.  :))

Rods - G.loomis

Reels - Shimano

Line - Sufix Performance Braid, Seaguar InVizx fluorocarbon, Yo Zuri Hybrid copolymer, Sufix Elite Nylon Monofilament

Hardbaits - Lucky Craft, Rapala, Bomber, Bagley

Jigs - GMAN

Spinnerbaits - Booyah and Strike King

Softbaits - Strike King Rage Tail

Storage - Any bag on sale from Cabela's that meets my requirements.

Sure you can have favorites just like you can absolutely hate for product or company.  I will never touch Quantum. I wont buy Rapala unless its 50% off at Dicks. I would never buy a Carrot Stick. From the list so far Im suprised the Revo has made such an inroad toward this boards beloved shimano. Even more suprised theres hardly a mention of Daiwa.

Rods-Shimano,Powell

Line-Sunline Fluorocarbon, Power Pro Braid

Soft Plastics-Net Bait Paca Craw, Jackall (Green Pumpkin)
