Lew's Laser G2 Speed Spin Spinning Reel

This any good? As opposed to, say, a Pfleuger President.

The price is good - $40. Says it has a lot of ball bearings. Hmmm...

I've been checking out a few spinning reels, not making recommendations.  Every time I put hand on Lews spinning reel, I haven't cared for any of them.  President is very impressive, the price even makes it more attractive.  The Mitchells are as smooth or smoother than anything I see, never fishing with a newer model I can't comment on the performance or durability.

for me they are very nice reels and have nice smooth drag and feel when reeling, that being said the presidents are too.. but it depends on what smooth means to you. for me the lews has a very connected feeling when im reeling almost like theres just a slight resistance when you turn the handle where the president to me you dont feel anything kinda like your playing air guitar but the guitar is the reel if that makes sense...i like the lews better but some guys like the air feel and i like all the features on the lews. i will say the lews i. is a tad bit heavy but i dont use it very much so its no big deal for me...
