Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted September 25, 2011 Global Moderator Posted September 25, 2011 Sounds like you have a winning combo in mind already. Quote
The Rooster Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Lew's Speed Spool!!! I'm a won over Shimano guy but the new Lew's reels seem to be as near flawless as you could get. Only thing I don't care for on the Revos is the way the palming sideplate widens out up near the front of the reel. It's uncomfortable to me. Quote
Packard Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 I've seen lots of problems with the newer revos. If you want a revo, check out the older skeet reese revo. Otherwise any shimano or lews reel in that range will do. Quote
Super User skunked_again Posted September 25, 2011 Super User Posted September 25, 2011 i am a Daiwa guy and i think the Revo STX is a great reel. IMO its as good as any reel in its price range. Quote
Khong Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 You can't go wrong with Shimano Curado, Revo STX, or Quantum Smoke for their performance and price range. Quote
ynnhoj86 Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 I have my duckett micro magic rod paired up with a revo sx. Really like it a lot. I put my revo premier on but just like it better with the sx. The stx would be a great choice. Quote
flippin and pitchin Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 A LEWS Tournament Pro would balance very nice with that Duckett. I like my LEWS over my Revo Premiers. At least consider them. Quote
msolorio Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 yep, revo, cant go wrong buut id loove to get a lews, heard a lot about em. also,i want a duckett!!!! lol oh n line, abraz x is great but i looove vicious pro elite fluorocarbon a lot more for just about everything! sunline sniper and shooter is awesome too.

Super User aavery2 Posted October 1, 2011 Super User Posted October 1, 2011 Which rod did you purchase, and are you going to use technique specific or will it be an all around type setup? I would choose a reel based on how I intended to fish the setup. Quote
