    Hi all, I'm shopping for a boat no bigger than 19ft to bass fish with my family of three and some friends in the future. I live in NJ and have located Lund, Vexus, and Alumacraft dealers not too far from me. I configured these boats out on their websites and with all the same features (as close as possible that I can get them) they all came out around $29,500 (115hp outboard, HB Helix 10, upgraded trailer). I plan to add my own TM when time of purchase which will be an Ultrex 112. Out of these three boats, which one do you think comes out ahead in craftsmanship, value, durability, and stability? I really had my eye on a Lund Pro V Bass 1875, but the price was just out of the budget after everything was configured. Additional info: Our biggest lake in NJ is 2,500 acres. This will be my first bass boat. Thanks ahead.

    Took out the Calais again today and more digging of braid causing my casts to get stuck while in mid air. I guess I have to move to bigger diameter line. 40# braid or 17# FC? Also, I've been looking at the NRX 894 like I mentioned, but want to also consider other options. What do you guys think of the St. Croix Legend Elite vs. Legend Xtreme vs. Megabass Orochi XX to fit the Calais 200 for overall versatility combo. Thanks!

    Hey everyone, thanks for your input! I'll be purchasing my bro's Calais. He let me borrow it to try yesterday and it casted super smooth and super far! Wow! He has it with 20# braid I believe...although I did notice the spool slip and backlash half way in some casts...maybe some adjustments are needed.

    Sorry for the tough question...

    Hello! Long time reader, first time poster. I did a search for this title and haven't exactly reached a straight answer. I want to simply know which one of these great reels is overall the better reel paired with a G. Loomis NRX 894c spooled with 20 lb. braid fishing with jigs/spinners/swimbaits/senkos/t-rigs/c-rigs/buzzbaits in the Northeast of the US. I have my bro selling me his lightly used 2011/12 Calais 201 DC for $300, and I know a new Metanium DC goes for 350-400 on the bay. So help me decide which one is the better reel out of the two. Thanks! -Will Bro
