Core Vs. Chronarch
 

If they both cost the same amount of money what reel would you pick for BL? Which one stands up better to salt, cast further, etc?

PTFFFFF

CORE 50MG.....Might not be as saltwater friendly but way better reel...

Old chronarch is nice 100d7 not the new ones...as w said core 50 on cummara or a loo...

Why the 50 vs 100? Just a size preference?

Size.....For trout you cant beat the 50...light light light

Core 50 on Waterloo. Light as a cane pole. Never owned a Chronarch, but I will try one.

I had 2 Core's and they both froze up in less than a year due to corrosion. I use Chronarch ch100d7's for everything now.

Have 6 Cores and only had to change barrings ........my oldest is 4 years old and has a little corroision

i have both chronny never messwed up once, core has stayed in the repair shop... but im not the type to baby my reels either

"Only" had to change bearings on a 300 plus dollar reel? Screw dat

none last forever????

How long did they last before you changed em

Im with you Ryan...Way more$$$ for a reel that is just a lil lighter and still have to work on it....I know personal preference is the main factor, but if you seriously cant hold a slightly heavier reel for a day.....????? again personal preference

Depends...... All of them lasted over a year....

Changed all of them to ceramic bearings and have only changed one of those so far....

My oldest one has a little rash from saltwater but I got all mine for $215 and 3 were Free so that makes a big diffrence

I own both and like both. I would go with the Core because I like the feel of it a little better but its a true win-win.

W, you shouldn't have any problems with your reels. Only about 20% of your casts even reach the water.


























:p

I've seen you cast....remember?
