shaggydog Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Looking at a new reel for st croix legend extreme 7ft mhf, Want to put a shimino metanium hg or a lew team pro on it. I already have cores, chronarchs and tournament pros and really like all of them. Kinda been leaning more towards shimano these days but lews are great also. So, what would you get? Quote
shaggydog Posted October 10, 2015 Author Posted October 10, 2015 Als, I had them both side by side and the lews I think is actually nicer. Good Day! Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted October 10, 2015 Super User Posted October 10, 2015 I would get the Metanium, without a second thought. That said, if you like the Lew's better, get it. They are both good reels. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted October 10, 2015 Super User Posted October 10, 2015 I would also get the Metanium. The resell value is also a lot stronger. Quote
shaggydog Posted October 10, 2015 Author Posted October 10, 2015 Yeah, Im trying to get to all one brand and mainliy fish shimano, but every time I fish with the lews I cant believe how good those are too. Talk about about a crisis. Quote
bass raider Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Shimano hands down. had both(still have the shimanos Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted October 11, 2015 Super User Posted October 11, 2015 I just handled my buddy's brand new DC MET. Sweet reel. Palmed nicely. To the OP, if you can get your hands on both reels and feel for yourself will be your best bet. Quote

You notice that it is on sale for $200 @TW Quote
k3bass Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Get the lews. The lews team reels are unbeatable for the price. Also Lews customer service is unmatched. 1 Quote
