Hi guys,
Really enjoy the wealth of knowledge here and hoped to get some of your opinions on a new reel purchase.
I need a musky reel for throwing junior and baby sized double cowgirls on a 7’6 or 8′ heavy action rod. My last few reels have been Abu 6500’s and I keep burning out the gears in them. I have heard good things about Shimanos and Revos. I dont mind throwing a round vs. low profile shaped reel. I’ve also been thinking it would be nice to have a reel with a higher gear ratio to lessen cranking fatigue on my arm. As per price, $300 is my limit, but to spend that much I need to know I’m getting something that will last more than one season.
What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance for your responses.
