raoka Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 I am kind of in a bind...I can get a curado g6 for 80 vs. a tournament speed spool for 120...this is for my jig/t-rig rod and i was wondering if the extra 40 dollars will get me "more" of a reel(and i guess the 3-4 extra ipt)...ive heard great things about lews and ive tried out the bb1 using tw's demo program which i thoroughly enjoyed casting and had no backlashes etc. i guess my question is would i notice a 40 dollar difference? i realize this is really subjective, but i just wanted to hear opinions. thanks again Quote
Super User FishTank Posted July 8, 2014 Super User Posted July 8, 2014 Years ago, this was not a concern..... Quote
Arv Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 The g series are fine reels imo. They get some flack as many feel they are a step down from the E, which I agree with. But the g series is a good deal at 80 bucks. I like the lews more but if money is a concern then I'd get the g Quote
Super User FishTank Posted July 8, 2014 Super User Posted July 8, 2014 I picked up a G Series Curado about a week ago and so far, no complaints. Just a great real. Quote
Capt.Bob Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 The G is why I tried a Lew's Tournament, TS1H, after that I sold all my Low Profile Shimano's and replaced them with other Lew's reels, two and a half years later, I am very happy with that move! I guess if you don't care which works better and feels better for you, go for the cheapest you can buy,,,,,, Quote
