Default baitcasters...

Any opinions of bait casters. Not looking to send over 200$, but looking for a good, quality reel. I have a couple of shimano curados, but was looking to pick up a couple more...thx

Message Rigratnomeaux with Duce Rods and check out the Lews, they are a site sponsor. Look in the classifieds Shaw had some reels for sale the other day.

if you like your E series curados, you will like the new E series chronarch. it's the same reel just a different color and with shimano's current rebate, it's selling for $10 less than the retail price of the curado E series.

Lew's seem to be great reels. i almost never get complaints about them. i think we still have a couple years left to see about long term durability and true value, but so far, so good!

We sell both brands at the tackle box, feel free to stop by and check them out.
