Ok, I'm looking at getting a baitcasting reel in the near future for
both inshore sal****er and freshwater fishing. I've been looking lately, and due to certain discounts(employee), I'm trying to choose between the following reels: Shimano Catala CTL300 Abu Garcia 6500C3 Line capacity is more than enough for me on either one, so I'm wondering which one is better in you guys' opinion. Thanks, Mark |

Hi,
Shimano Catala CTL300 Abu Garcia 6500C3 I fish the ABU ..... but I am also waiting for it to fail. The level wind is driven by plastic gears, which already start to shed scraps of PE. I don't know about the Catalas, but the ABU was a "one-time only" thing. BTW: a Friend of mine thinks the AVET MXJ6/4 casts better than the Catala (no LW, however) maybe that's an alternative. Nick |
