FishFinder Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) Looking to buy a new spinning reel for casting lures at piers, looking for something that can hold a full spool (300 or so yards) of 10 or 12 # mono. Only thing i really care about is that it is light. Thanks for any suggestions.. Edited February 16, 2007 by FishFinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooked Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 If you want light, stay away from Diawa, they weigh aton for the size you want. Depending how much you want to spend on a reel, but the 4000 series of Shimano's are ideal for what you are looking for. You also might want to check out the Phflueger Trion or President, good reels and are under $100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbo Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) First of all..it depends on the rod you wanna use. It has to be heavy enough to counter-balance the rod tip-weight. Also, for salmon or big carp, you need a reel with a strong twist-free frame & great drag. Anyway DAIWA HARDBODYZ are the best reels. check this out search here too Edited February 16, 2007 by danbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbuck Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 A Sahara for under a hundred bucks is a pretty good reel. Or if you want to spend more, get a Stradic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
