hello what do u guys think of the new lews bb1 baitcaster reel is there anything better in the 150 to 200 range for steelhead fishing

 

thanks

i was gonna wait until next year when I get myself a cranking setup since I like the 20" IPT to slow me down. But, I did find out that it has not an instant anti reverse, so that's really throwing me off.

No idea how it will be for steelhead though. Good luck

Prefer the tourney pro. The non anti reverse and mag brakes are a turn off. I like the dual braking system.

any other ones anyone would suggest for steel baitcasters

for steelhead fishing I use a calcutta TE and a cardiff, both work great for drifting and chucking lures
