Pflueger President Limited Edition Spinning Reel

[MikeFL52]

Anyone have one, thoughts?  Much difference from a standard President?  Does it approach a Supreme?

Cosmetics, weight, drag, and some materials are different/better than the President.   Very smooth, but so is the President, not a lot of difference in the Supreme.     I own many Pflueger spinning reels and they all feel smooth to me.

I am happy to see this topic. I recently purchased two presidents per recommendation of new fishing neighbor. Have one on a McGill skeeter medium light/fast 7.2

For 60 buck it impressed me. Very very smooth. I see the have a few model very similar ...but way more money. Believe patriarch was one with I thought was closer to $250. I'm just wondering if they are any smoother than mine. Did see someone stated on on other topic "yes smoother" but that's hard to believe. Would have to try for myself.

p.s. I switched from Mitchell 300 ' s to the Plueger so you can see why I think they are silky smooth. A friend of mine passed away any I inherited his collection of over 20 of the mitchell 300 's so picked a new one to fish with.

The Supreme and Supreme XT are in fact "smoother', and a step up in components, but you still can't go wrong with the President.  I've owned and have owned several Presidents and President XT's and now this one on the way.  As a matter of fact I just purchased two President 20s (see the Manventure thread).  Yesterday I was at cabela's and fondled, yes fondled the Patriarch..........nice!
