[QUOTE="gnappi, post: 442010, member: 22374"] I got the 2500, it's a bit big for freshwater lakes here, but likely good for the snakeheads. But with this issue I've not used it in a while. One of these days, I'll change the spool to the smaller one to see if it has a tighter clearance and won't allow the 8 lb hybrid under it. I've been looking at the Sahara, it's the only other RD model I can get in the States other than the Sienna that I'd consider, I don't want anything with "Quickfire" so that leaves the Spirex out. The European and Asian fishermen still use the RD widely, I wonder why we don't. Like you Shimano is my go to brand nowadays, though I have an old 1000 class Finn Nor that I really like and a couple of old Penn 2500 type reels that I used to use for Dorado / Dolphin and they held up well, and pulled in some big fish. BTW, the Symetre are still available in Ebay. [/QUOTE]
