linebreaker Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 Looking for a good baitcaster under $100...Is there such a thing?...haha I've fished with spinners forever, and recently got interested in trying one again (broke my 1st one right after I got it 5 years ago) after my former "mishap". Buddy of mine has a quantum (not sure what model) and loves it...Any help fellow bucketmouth busters???Thanks. Quote
the ohh face Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 hmm i think there are, you may find what you looking for doing a search on it in the rods reels and lines section. Also check out a retailer like amazon that has both good and bad reviews of the products when you decide on a model Quote
Super User Alpster Posted May 4, 2007 Super User Posted May 4, 2007 Linebreaker, WELCOME to the forum!!! Check out the ABU Garcia Ambassaduer 4600 C3 or 5000 C3. They are less than a $100 and are formidable baitcasters. That's my suggestion. Ronnie Quote
Fishin49er Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 Abu Garcia Revo S is 100 bucks and a great reel. Quote
Super User grimlin Posted May 4, 2007 Super User Posted May 4, 2007 Abu Garcia Revo S is 100 bucks and a great reel. I've heard nothing but good reviews about the revo's...another good one is a shimano citica...you can find them on ebay for $97 i believe.I landed a 21.3 inch carp by accident with it today....lol Quote
WhiteMike1018 Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 Abu Garcia Revo S is 100 bucks and a great reel. He couldnt have put it better. Quote
Cigarlover 1 Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 An Abu Garcia Ambassadeur will stand the test of time and I haven't heard a bad thing yet about the Revo if you're looking for low profile. The Revo is going to be my next baitcaster purchase BTW. Quote
Guest the_muddy_man Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 Lets see BPS Extreme, Cabelas Tournament Zx , Cabelas Prodigy and my favorite reel coming in at 99.99 PFLUEGER TRION Quote
fisherboy Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 ive got the white cabelas reel with a nice rod for 80 bucks. it casts a mile. bass pro shops combos are hard to beat. great reel for the money. id go that route for sure Quote
awjweb Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 I use an Abu C4. I think it was about $70 at BPS. I really like the feel of it. With a several years of use it has become silky smooth. I'm not an equipment freak but I do demand something of high quality that works reliably. This reel has met my expectations. Quote
RWHusker. Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 Abu Garcia Revo S is 100 bucks and a great reel. I bought a new one in the flea market section for $55. Great Reel! GO BIG RED Quote
linebreaker Posted May 5, 2007 Author Posted May 5, 2007 Hey guys - Thanks sooo much for the suggestions! Sounds like the revo comes highly recommended. I think I'll give one of those a spin... Quote
