dam0007 Posted November 3, 2012 Author Posted November 3, 2012 Gonna put buying a spinning reel on hold till I get some time on the water with this set up. Quote
Super User rockchalk06 Posted November 4, 2012 Super User Posted November 4, 2012 Im flattered to be called out on a topic for a post. Discourage you from buying that reel I will not, nor can I really not discourage from the rod. Abu Veritas is an amazing rod for the $. Im sure you have taken a look at all the reels in the $200 price range, so the only thing you can do is your own personal homework. Im sure you are going Gen3 on the Winch reel, I dont know if there are many reviews out there for them yet for you to better get an idea of customer satisfaction. I dont know what brake system this reel is equiped with, but I know that I personally dont like Abu brake systems. The only thing that I would suggest would be to try out an Chronarch 200E5. I wont hate you for not buying a Shimano, but Im not going to let you in my clubhouse anymore, LOL. Good choice on the rod. The Winch, if I remember correctly has the infiniti break system like the STX Quote
dam0007 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Posted November 4, 2012 I meant put a spiining ROD on hold. Quote
1234567 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Another site has the gen 3 Revo Winch on sale for the same price. I prefer the 3 for sure as it has the infini brakes so you don't have to take the sideplate off to adjust every time. I just ordered one myself. Pm if you want the site! Quote
