markiemark70 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Many of you may have seen my post earlier this week called "Broken Reel", referring to my 20 year old Abu Garcia Cardinal reel that snapped in half. Well I went to CT in Milton tonight just to "see" what they had. I had a budget in mind of $100. When I got there, the selection was not that great, but I saw this puppy and I thought it was kismet: http://www.epinions.com/review/Abu_Garcia_Cardinal_500_Spinning_Reel/content_348641398404 Who says history never repeats? From all accounts it seems like a pretty good reel for the money. I paid $70 (could have got it at BPS for $60 if I wanted to drive half hour each way on the 407 which would have cost me more than $10, not to mention the obligatory $100 in "extras" that always follow me out of BPS) The wife and kids are heading out of town for an overnighter tomorrow. Can't wait to try this puppy out!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
