Cabela's Prodigy reel

BTW I believe you can buy any reel from Cabelas, use it for about a month,
and if you don't like it they will take it back in exchange for something
else.Better check with Cabelas for the details, but you can probably try
both reels before committing. Also, I have not tried the "new" Stradic 2500.
The MG I referred to in my other post (I meant to write 2500MG) is not the
same as the "new" Stradic. The "new" Stradic has a lube port and I don't
know what else. It might be better than the MG.

Another feature I really like about the Prodigy 2000 is the non-folding
handle. I think it looks great and it has virtually no "play".

I also want to mention that I have a long hard season on one of my Prodigies
and my Shimano MG. Although they were both about the same when new, the
Prodigy is now smoother and has a more solid feel especially when under
load. Note though, the MG is not the same as the "new" Stradic.

You probably cannot go wrong with either reel. My choice clearly is the
Prodigy though.
