Price For Spinning Reels

Pflueger President hard to beat for the $$$$$$$

This. Got one today at Walmart for 50.00. "they marked it down by mistake with last years model". I'm a die-hard Quantum Energy PTi Spinning E30PTi/E40PTi user but this lil President is nice.

DarrenM, I find it hopeless to make a review of a none shimano product here.   Any dialog would only become a shimano vs. Daiwa debate that would surely get locked.  I'll pm you some of my thoughts, o.k.?

 

Fine by me.

I'm getting some feedback from the water....the Lexa may be the new crackerjack spinning reel choice.  Remember the Tierra/Capricorn?  Those were the best reels at that price at the time.

Everything I'm hearing suggests Daiwa has a killer series in the Lexa (not including my own experience).

I have noticed a difference in each price range of spinning reels, lately i have been spending a little more on each reel.  I had a Pflueger trion and a Shimano Sienna, which weren't bad, the Shimano was better.  Then to the Pflueger President, which was much better than the previous two, and now the Shimano Sahara, which is fantastic.  For a guy that only uses spinning gear, i think spending the money on a nicer reel is worth it.

I hear the same great things about the lexa too. Before I got my last reel I was eyeing it, but got a deal too good to pass up on another brand. Seriously think the next reel I get will be a lexa one way or another.

I got a Daiwa Exceler for $80 and I love it. I will shakey head all day with it and its been fantastic for me
