:D If they're still available on 'Special' the Shakespeare K2 Powerplay, RRP £90 but have been seen much cheaper. A real tough reel. :D

 

 

I recently bought a Daiwa Emcast 6000 and it's been absolutely ace so far. Picked it up for £53 off eBay.

i'v just managed to source another storm 7000 reel at a boot fair ,cheap reel but can outcast (and i'm no caster!) any other fixed spool reel i have including a rather bad abu by at least 25%.

the rod makes a difference ofcourse my old new diawa supercast outcasts my new newer longbeam easily using the same reel :D

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

:D It's down to what I always say when reviewing tackle, it's what suits you best. Find what fits you and suits your style of casting and you will almost certainly catch more fish with it. :D

Elton,

For £50 I'd get the Shimano Aerlex I've been using one for years, cracking reel. If you want to spend(i know the word is forign to you :D ) an extra £10 get the Shimano Navi Ive just got one and its even better.

Just one big fish, PLEASE!!!!!!
