Hey everyone, I'm looking into buying a new baitcasting reel (for 17-20lb line) -- for a 7' Medium Heavy casting rod. Nothing too expensive -- I'm looking for good deals on e-bay and a few other sources... Any suggestions?
this is the reel i'm using. and yes, it is a sweet rig. and yes they have lefty. match that sucker up with a daiwa medium heavy rod like i did and you got yourself a very versitale and reliable rig. rod was on sale for $20 at the time. i don't even touch my other stuff anymore. but spinning gear has it's place.krnfishboy7786 said:Hey Jason were you talking about the Daiwa Capricorn orig. 140 going for $69? I got to play around w/ it today the guy at Dick's took it out of the case for me and it's sweet! I'm pretty sure I saw them have a left-hand version as well
wife found the stash of dick's receipts i keep in the car and she flipped out! and i quote..."WHAT!!! You spent $30 on some stupid plastic worms!!!!!" and my response..."i would of spent $60 but i thought you'd get mad."edai2000 said:Woo-hoo, spending more ching on fishing stuff. Wife is going to love it.

I havent been brave enuff yet to try it.roleplayaj1324 said:it took me like a year or so messing around withmy baitcasting reel to finally get it, i dont use the brake anymore i actually lost the screw that makes the brake tighter and looser so its not activated anymore but in my opinion they work plastics alot better and i feel like i have more feeling of stuff in the water
