Daiwa Procaster?

[Shadowfoot]

I just bought my first baitcaster from the pawn shop. I was wondering if anyone has used a Daiwa Procaster before, and if it's any good for bass fishing?

Absolutely.  I assume you are talking about this one.  http://tackletour.com/reviewdaiwaprocaster.html

 

I bought one on closeout for my grandson.  I wound up with it since he had no desire to fish with a baitcast reel.  It isn't a small reel and it isn't light.  However, it is very well built for the price.  Feels solid.  Casts quite well.  Although a bit larger than today's reels, it palms well...at least for me.  I put it on a 6' MH rod dedicated to short casts with spinnerbaits so it hasn't seen a lot of use as I'm almost always fishing from shore.

 

I think you will be very pleased with it given its age and price.  Should give you years of service.

Seems like a sweet reel, looking at the tackle tour review it looks cool to.

They've been making a procaster for years and from the first model to the current, they are decent reels.  I still use an old 100B on one of my topwater rods.

Now that you mention it I do remember reading this before.  I am only familiar with the 100HN.
