hmongkidBee Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 hey guys got another question. I'm going to be buying a new bass fishing combo soon. I'm going to be fishing weightless plastics and ultra light jigs(3/16oz-1/4oz). I pretty much have the rod that I want picked out already, but now need a reel to match it. I want a small profile reel that palms really good such as a chronarch 50MG reel. By the way my budget that I want to spend is about $200 or more for the reel. let me know your suggestions okay. Thanks in advance. Quote
RussBert Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 I think you answered your own question The 50mg meets your criteria Quote
hmongkidBee Posted June 25, 2010 Author Posted June 25, 2010 alright but is there another reel that I should take a look at also. The chronarch 50MG is great for pitching and flipping, but it feels very underpowered to me. I would like to check out other reels as well. Quote
Super User BASSclary Posted June 25, 2010 Super User Posted June 25, 2010 Look at the Abu Revo Lineup, they are quite comfortable and they are workhorses! ;D Quote
brushhoggin Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 stx baby, it's all about that magnetic adjustment Quote
hmongkidBee Posted June 25, 2010 Author Posted June 25, 2010 oh by the way I want a lightweight reel. I was going to buy that revo STX earlier this year, but it's weight was what turned me away from it. It looks amazing, but I'm looking for a lightweight reel as well. Quote
Senkoman12 Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 Strippers maybe what do you use to fish for them? dollar bills, i would guess Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted June 26, 2010 Super User Posted June 26, 2010 Ha..I throw swimbaits with my Chronarch..I have the 101bpv though. I also use for flippin and pitchen, does a great job for both.. Quote
Super User skunked_again Posted June 26, 2010 Super User Posted June 26, 2010 those one green reels.........what are they again? they work as well or better than any Revo reel out there. (easy fellas, ive owned both for over a full season, and thats JMO) Quote
Super User David P Posted June 26, 2010 Super User Posted June 26, 2010 Revo Premier? Or the Skeet Revo? I don't like the 50mg unless it's for finesse fishing. 12lb line and under. I sold mine after only a few trips out with it. Quote
hmongkidBee Posted June 27, 2010 Author Posted June 27, 2010 yep I'm going to be using this reel for finesse fishing. I might throw out weightless soft plastics and need a reel that can do this without the backlash. I also want it to be comfortable when palming as well as being lightweight. Quote
taptap Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I use my mg50 for just those applications. Backlash free and nice distance. I have it paired with a cumara and is my favorite combo out of the the 11 that i have. Quote
