I am looking for a rear drag free-spool reel for carping. I am looking to pay up to £50 (not much I know)...
I've looked at the Okuma Undertakers and although they're good reels I can't get on with front drag... Any recomendations? -------------------- __

Have a look at the Bennetts of Sheffield website, they have some great deals on tackle. There is some good quality stuff there at some great prices.

If you want a free spool facility then the Shimmano Baitrunner is still the best choice.I would rather use a good second hand reel than an inferior new one.

Diawa 'Regal' X or Z
All the features of a Shimmy for £40.00 You can get some very good Rod/Reel deals on both Diawa & Shimmy on the net & often at a local dealer. -------------------- Jealousy: totally irrational anger directed at people who happen to be richer, prettier, thinner, cleverer and more successful than you are.

Damm good prices Monkeyboy!
I did drop in at Darlston many years back & found it not quite the 'superstore' advertised! (still got a very nice quiver outfit from them after digging about a bit!) -------------------- Jealousy: totally irrational anger directed at people who happen to be richer, prettier, thinner, cleverer and more successful than you are.

Shimano Nexus Baitrunner RE 5000 for £49.99 at http://www.wmac.co.uk, doubt if you'll do better than that for under £50!

Go for the shimano it wont let you down and after using you will stick to shimano reels. Then again you could save another 20quid and get a shimano 6000gte which has more bearings and is super smooth. -------------------- RUDD

i no what you mean about the front drag system. i own a okuma dynadrag and all though it is a good real i reach for the bottom of the reel by instinct.
