Help with new reel
«

Well my reel finally died on me after 13 years of faithful service. So I’m in need of a new reel. I’ve got it narrowed down to the okuma Citrix or the pfluger supreme lpx. I can’t decide which one to get. The pfluger is 100 and the okuma is 120. This is gonna be a silver and steelhead reel. Or should I shell out the extra dough for the shimano citica? Thanks guys

I’d like to get the curator but I think it’s out of my price range. I’d like to keep it between 100-150

Whatever you get I hope it gives you a better service life. I am nearing 38 years with a BG15 Diawa and no sign of failure. Best of luck

I'd find two good reels in the $60-$75 range.
Then you have a backup reel.

I'll toss out the Abu Garcia Revo. There is a wide range of options and prices on this line. I have enjoyed using a coiple of them over the years. I also like the Pflueger I have though I don't do much bass fishing anymore and haven't used it for a while.

Thanks guys. I’ll give the Curado a harder look. My pops has one and really loves his as well.

Obviously would have said Curado if it was one of your choices.

It wasn’t on the list cause of the price but after the recommendation here and doing some looking online and going in to the store messing with them I decided it was worth the couple extra dollars. Plus I found a coupon
I can’t wait to get it. Should be getting it on Friday.
