WHAT is the best make of salt water reel.

 

[swtfisher]

Old Green Curado CU-200. IMO You can still find them on ebay.

 

[BILLABLETIME]

why the old style????

 

[swtfisher]

They jacked the price up by $100 on the new ones. In my opinion, they are the best bang for your buck. I have talked to people that are using the new Chronarchs and are not as impressed. The green ones are a sound reel and low maintenance.

I think you forgot Diawa on the pole. But I'm still voting for Shimano

O The Guy At Academy Told Me They Were No Good For Salt Water So I Never Tried Them

 

[swtfisher]

The guy at Academy obviously never tried them and needs to be transferred to the shoe department.........

i really like my new diawa coastal inshore but have had some problems with the cast control so i'd have to go with the old green curado by a nose. allthough i do like the 100 better than the 200.

I like the green 100, but the weight of my mg makes it hard to beat. I am a little worried about the saltwater on the mg.
