fish-fighting-illini Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 Why do these 2 spinning reels get compared so often? From a price prspective only, the most relevant comparison would be The Pflueger Medalist ( not the Dick's Gold version the real one) to the Symetre. Has anyone fished both of these reels? Quote
topwater buzz Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 I was in BPS last week looking to get a new 1500 size spinning reel for light line fishing. I bet I fumbled through reels for an hour or more. Finally decided to stick with Shimano symetre. I also bought a Daiwa Exceler in 2000 size. I liked the Plueger Medalist alot. But. If this makes any sense where as the Shimano and Daiwa feel smooth and powerful at the same time. I felt the Pflueger was too smooth for my tastes. May sound crazy but I felt better connected with the Shimano and Daiwa. Anyway to change the subject completely. I assume you are a big illini fan. I graduated from U of I in 1984 with many a beer to show for it. Leave me a message back and maybe we can chat some more! Quote
