I'm pretty much into 'cheap' myself. I don't see the point in a $50 fly
reel - what does it really do?

Depends on what you're doing with it. If, for example, you are pursuing
tarpon, a fifty dollar fly reel will be useful for starting
fires......well,
one fire, anyway.

Wolfgang

I don't fish for tarpon.

It occurs to me that if you were to provide us with a comprehensive list of
all the species you don't fish for we could simplify this process and save a
lot of time.

For your average freshwater fisherperson pursuing
mostly trout and an occasional bass - what's the point?

Hm.......

I think I'll defer to your average freshwater fisherperson pursuing mostly
trout and an occasional bass on this one.

expectation, still aspires to achieving the golden mean someday.
