Fishing reels-Question

Okay, what is your favorite baitcaster?

Most of the ones I own are Curados. But I was thinking about buying a
Quantum Accurist to see what its like.

Anybody have any thoughts on the Accurist?

Thanks....

A Quantum? Why do you want to go to a inferior reel? Most reel repair
guys will tell you the Curado is the best reel for the money..

Really? If that's the case, how would a reel repairman know?

Then any user would know and being a reel repairman makes no difference.

The reason the reel repair guys used Shimano is they didn't want to work
on their own reels after working on others all. the time...Not my words,
just what they said. I don't use Shimano reels or the ones starting with
a "Q" Maybe if reel guys don't know about reels, guides don't know how
to fish and rod makers can't build rods...grin

When I was looking for a new baitcaster, I was steered away from the
Accurist from people here. They suggested the Curado, and I liked them so
much I now own 5 of them.

I owned several Quantums long before the users of this NG got me to try a
Curado. I finally broke down and bought one, but I have gotten so used to
my Accurists that I don't like the action of the Curado. If I was going to
go for another high end reel I would probably try a Pflueger President.

As a side note. For a cheap reel that isn't bad I have a couple BassPro
MH1000 s. One I won in at a bass club meeting, and the other I bought for a
spare before I decided to just buy the more expensive Accurists I like so
well. They both work well. You have to thumb them to keep from backlashing
if you use them for pitching, but they can be used, and they are pretty
smooth for a cheap reel. They aren't bad at all for casting a medium or
heavy spinner bait. In fact I have one on my 3 wt Lamiglass rod that I use
almost exclusively for throwing spinner baits.
