I'm not puckered at all. When you claim other people have motives and your sig and avatars clearly show yours, you bet ill call you on it.

You dont think mocking something or someone is deragatory?

"Showing a critical or disrespectful attitude" hmmmmmmmm....

I use Daiwa reels also.  Megabass, Evergreen and Abu rods with a few Falcon and Daiwa rods in the hopper.  My personal experience with Shimano left me underwhelmed.

A wise man once said if you stamped "Shimano" on a turd, some fool would say it was the best ever pinched.  I wish I could remember who said because I think it's about the funniest thing I ever read and truest at that.

I'm unapologetically bored with you.

The extent of your responses shows how much so.

I use Daiwa and Cabelas reels also along with my Quantum products. I also have a Shimano reel and my experience with it hasn't been pleasant at all. I also had a bad experience with the BPS Quantum exclusive reel mentioned her earlier and returned it for another Quantum reel and that reel hasn't given me any problems. I currently have 6 Quantum reels in both casting and spinning models with the Smoke to be my 7th Quantum reel and I'm pleased with them all. None has ever given me a problem or failed even when purchased used off ebay. As someone says everyone makes a lemon and thats the nature of production and manufacturing. When someone asks for an opinion I give it based on my experience with the product as best I can be it good or bad.
