bwell Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 I am looking to get a new/used reel to pitch and flip with. My Revo silvermax is getting pretty worn down and will be giving it to a buddy of mine so he can fix it up and use it. What reels would you guys suggest? Only looking to spend about 120 bucks or so... Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted January 19, 2011 Super User Posted January 19, 2011 At 120 bucks, it's kind of hard to beat a Citica. Quote
bwell Posted January 19, 2011 Author Posted January 19, 2011 I already have a citica and am thinking about getting something I don't have yet... I have both the D and E and prefer the D but isn't the gear ratio a little low for pitching on those? Quote
piscicidal Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 The Quantum Accurist is $99 new and IMO is an outstanding deal. Aluminum frame and side plate, solid drag (ceramic), five bearings, fast retrieve (7.0:1), good braking system. Pretty much every thing you need in a pitching/flipping reel. Quote
Carrington Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 if you up that money 25 more dollars, you can get a brand new shimano curado off of ebay. Quote
Revo_Carrot Stix Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 You should be able to find a 2009 Revo SX in that price range. Quote
bwell Posted January 19, 2011 Author Posted January 19, 2011 You still have that zillion for sale nibbles? Quote
Nibbles Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 I sure do. It's at home though so I'll have to go home this weekend and grab it since I'm on campus right now. It's like a 20 minute drive though so it shouldn't be a problem. I'll cut you a deal and do 140 local pickup. I got the Zillion from Micro a while back and have only used it on 3 outings so the internals are still pretty much flawless. There's one pinhead ding on top of the reel from when I put it down to unhook a fish and it somehow got scratched by a pebble. Quote
