Baitcaster to match my Dobyns 705cb

[Socal399]

Okay so I just pulled the trigger on eBay and Bought an Dobyns fury 705cb rod, I’ve been eyeing for a couple weeks. And got a pretty good deal with the 20%off code. Now I mainly am gonna use it for squarebill fishing. But Now I need a good decent reel to match it. Looking to spend between $100-$150 for it. Any info and suggestions would be a great help and greatly appreciated! I’m still just a beginner at bass fishing! So go easy on me!! Lol

Diawa tatula sv. They can easily be found on eBay in your price range

Daiwa fuego. Only $70 on eBay. Its a beast of a reel at that price point and is just about as smooth as my tatula's and tatula sv's. And with the money you save you could actually buy 2 fuegos or spend the extra on squarebills, line, or other tackle.

Shimano Casitas good reel very easy learning curve and it cast extremely well. Probably find one for 70$ on eBay.

Was actually looking a the 

Daiwa Tatula SV TWS 7.3:1 Casting Reel TASV103HS

But it’s sold out on eBay!

Curado 70

 

its a high enough quality reel you’ll likely never need to replace it.

Agree ! I would rather to get that along with gear replacement.

However, that is another 40 bucks there.

Go with a Diawa Tatula CT in a 6.3-1. They can be purchased off Amazon for around $118.  Look around because sometimes you can get them for around $100.  The Tatula SV is a great reel but better for skipping and real light baits.

just to complicate your decision. i have a lews bb1 in 5-1(might be something like 5.3) gear ratio on my sq bill set up and love it.

That Feugo pricing is hard to beat, and so is the Bass Pro PQ (i don't remember if it's on sale still). Otherwise, I've got a Lew's Speed Spool that I use for mine, and I couldn't be happier. 

[Socal399]

think I narrowed it down to these two reels . 
Lew's BB1 Pro Speed Spool 7.1:1 Casting Reel PRS1SHZ

AND


Shimano Curado 7.2:1 CU70HG Casting Reel

What do u guys think? I have a couple lewd speed spools that I love and i don’t really have any experience it’s Shimano except for an old Caius I started out with years ago! 
But I did love that reel too! And I can get both for a great deal on that auction site. Which one guys? Lol

That's a hard comparison, the curado is a great reel, but in the end, I'm a Lew's guy. If that's the new BB1 give it a try, they've redesigned it and it looks awesome. When it's two reels this close, go see if you can hold them, that's mostly what it comes down to in my opinion.

Great suggestions here.  My wife has this exact rod with a Daiwa Fuego, and I have it with a Tatula CT Type-R.  I've got a handful of Tatula CTs and not one has had an issue yet.   Looks great on the 705cb to boot, and very affordable new on e-bay
