![]() i purchased cabela's prestige plus line, a wf5f, at 85 feet i think. works great for me. i imagine i'm losing a bit when compared to a scientifc anglers ast trout line, but that's ok for me right now. completely ridiculous i know, but at the time, late last year, it had two of the most important factors for me. 1) relatively inexpensive and 2) came in that cool flourescent green color. and then there was always the off-hand chance it was made of or came from similar stock as some of the higher priced lines... those lower end lines from cabelas must be REALLY short. no way would i normally cast 85 feet... ;-) eric fresno, ca.

Snoop Thanks to both, some good info there. I'm leaning towards the higher end cabela's ones, not sure who's making those for them. If I were you, I'd run on down to Fins and Feathers on 19th and check out the Orvis Bar Stock reel before buying a "higher end" Cabela's. Damn good reel for the money and you'll be able to see it in person. No, not billings, but Bozeman Well, hello there neighbor. -- Warren (use troutbum_mt (at) yahoo to reply via email) For Conclave Info: http://www.geocities.com/troutbum_mt...nConclave.html |

Thanks, good advice, and I'll definitely do that, see what's available. Need some waders and boot replacement anyway, so we'll see if we can support the local economy. Thanks a lot, KD |
