I have a few Pfleuger Cetina reels and they are pretty solid. These are about the only spincast reels I have really cared for. I haven't tried the nicer Zebcos but I think they would give them a run for the money. They are built pretty solid and cast better than any spin cast reel I have tried. When I have them to people the first response is that they are heavier than they thought they would be. But the weight is quality and not just fluff. The spools are stupid easy to replace and the they are fairly smooth for a spin cast reel. Right now they are discontinued and can be found for a discounted price. I have 2 of the smallest reels which are perfect for bream and crappie on a light rod. I also have one of the smaller underspin reels I plan to use for small spinners and jigs. I also just found the mid sized reel at gander mountain and I will set that one up for fishing guests for catfish and bass. I got 2 from bass pro for $20, on of pfluegers website for $25 and the midsize for $25 from gander mountain. I plan to buy anymore of these that I see. They are mostly for people who might go fishing with me to use but I honestly would be comfortable leaving my favorite reels at home and just fishing with these. I'll probably upgrade to a good florocarbon line on them just because I think they could handle a little more than most similar reels. I want to eek the most out of them when I use them.
