multiplyer

[willherb]

I have been given a Abu 7000 by my granddad as a present and so far I have
got on well enough with it to want to buy another multiplier.

I want one with a level wind because I basically can't be bothered to waste
my time concentrating on the line and (hopefully) the fish on the end. I
know you lose distance in the cast but that to I am not fussed about.

What I really need to know is what else to take into consideration when
buying. I know that it needs to be a "surf) reel for distance on the beach
and that the material it is made from should be probably aluminium or
stainless steal but what I am unsure of is things like the magnets, washers
being resistant to heat and anything else that I should look for.

I know that some people will say that it depends on what you are fishing for
and were but all I am looking for is the reel that won't break after a few
years and won't cost the earth. something around the £100 mark

All help will be appreciated.

Try to get hold of an old ABU mag 3 or something similar, they have a free
floating level wind.

Hi

Try an abu 6500CS rocket £80, Abu CS elite, abu CS mag elite CS is the
levelwind version)or the diawa millionaire, all great for clean beach
fishing. Abu 7000 better for rough ground fishing.

Regards,
