In the market for a new spinning reel

[Brine]

Haven't had to buy one in 3 years. Anyone got any new favorites? Bass fishing on a MH 6'6" St Croix Premier.

The last spinning reel I bought was the Johnny Morris with the wide spool 3 years ago, and I've liked it alot.

Ihave a slightly used but in great condition shimano stradic 2500 I would be willing to sell. Comes with extra spool, seagar invisix 8lb flouro, box and papers. Let me know if your interested.

Thanks for the offer Jeff. The Stradic looks like a nice reel. I think I'm going to try out the Lew's Tournament series. Now that I've owned a wide spool reel, and like the way it performs, I'm thinking that's the way I want to go again.

No problem. You just saved me money :LOL2: If I would have sold it, I would be upgrading from there and you know how that goes. Good luck with your search as I have no experience with the lews reels. if you change your mind let me know.

Haven't tried the Lews spinning reel, but I like the bait caster. So far it's nice quality.

I could possibly help you upgrade OO. What were you looking to get for the Stradic?

possibly a ci4? what do you have shimano?

I meant by buying your Stradic off you. What were you looking to get for it and how old is it?

I put the Stradic on my new St Croix legend elite 6'8'' mxf and it felt heavy. But after fishing shakey heads with it all day Saturday at Pickwick, I have changed my mind and have decided to keep it! It felt a little heavy and I thought the ci4 weighing 2 oz less would be better, and it might, but what I have now will do!
