so I was given some bucks to buy a reel
the only thing I could think of was something for icefishing and maybe some UL fishing
I hate the really small reels they sell for light line icefishing, I needed something just a bit bigger
someone told me the Shimano Stradic 1000F Spinning Reel would be the perfect
and when I checked into it it was just what I was looking for, I mean it was exactly what I had in mind......dang, they are not cheap, but was within the amount given to me....I was reading about them on a USA website but the price was much cheaper..so I started looking around and man they are cheaper down there......
so I decide it just doesn't make sense to buy up here.....I really like to buy in Canada but..money is money
as I am looking for where I will buy it an Ebay auction pops up...oh yeah good price...Oh wait they have a Shimano Stradic CI4 1000F Spinning Reel buy now cheaper then the Shimano Stradic 1000F Spinning Reel in Canada..Ok what is a Shimano Stradic CI4 1000F Spinning Reel...I like it even more, I found an auction for one put in a bid
and wouldn't you know it , I win the very first one I bid on
today I get it delivered to my door $210.00 all in...210.00 bucks all in to my door.............how the heck can you go wrong with that
any ways I didn't know much about it but it does seem sweet
and it is so light it floats
I mean you set it down and you find it 6" off the floor just floating there waiting to be used....ok not that light but , you hold it in your hand and with your eyes closed you don't know if there is a piece of paper in your hand or the reel...yeah light
so I am happy with the reel and POed I can't buy it in Canada unless I want to pay about 80 more bucks....
