I doubt a bail roller is effecting anything there Bill. I'm pretty
familiar
with your problem, I've been dealing with it for years as I use spinning
equiptment often. You're just not noticing the occasional loop, I'd bet
on
it.

As for your high $ reel question, I always recommend using the quality
reels
possible. My reels run me between $170 & 210 each, and I rarely
experience
any problems with them mechanically. Of course your financial situation
would dictate the price of your toys understandably. As a note I use rods
that run 90-100 for the most part, I don't see a cause to spend more on
them. Not cheap, but far from top-of-the-line.

For a mid to low price reel that I have had very good luck with check out
the Shimano Symetre. I was using Pflueger trions and supremes. They fished
well, but did not hold up.
