Pretty much preferred Shimanos until I bought a Pleuger President, tough to beat for a $100, let alone the $50 they go for. The Okuma baitrunners or whatever they are called are nice for bigger fish. I use them in the salt and they hold up well.


Stuck in airports, Terrorized
Sent to meetings, Hypnotized
Over-exposed, Commercialized
