Reliability means more than cost to me, which is why my last four reels have
been the Curados. They're about $130.00, but so far I've only had one of
them fail, and that was because it was cold and I set the hook too hard. The
thing just snapped off... but Shimano replaced the reel.

Morning Folks,

Kind of an impromptu survey...

A) What is the most that you would spend for a fishing reel?

B) Do you personally believe that price and quality go hand-in-hand?
(i.e.
Would you expect a $500 reel to be superior to a $100 reel?)
