Hi,
there is only one issue: a curado reel is definitely more expensive here than in my country (like 25% with tax). Probably, i'll buy it after I return, but right now it's just not profitable; therefore, i want to to buy something else (I thought about daiwa viento). Actually, I'm very surprised at your opinions about Abu. After I read those positive reviews, I thought that this is a good reel.
I usually use crankbaits (I retrieve baits very slowly) and chase basses, pikes, perches and few other species.
Thanks
