I have a Stradic, never a better reel at any price. Somehow a Daiwa ended up on a rod of mine. Oh yea I was given it as a gift. I have 17 spinning reels, 16 are Shimano. 

If you feel like dropping a good chunk of money, check out the Shimano Exsence MHG. I just bought the 3000 size and have been blown away with how smooth it is. There are better reels than the stradic. They just cost a lot more but man do I love this reel.

Look at the Pflueger President reels. Great reels and price does not break the bank.

Yep. I picked up a President reel and rod combo (one piece rod, 7' long) at a Gas Station in a pinch for $110 + Tax. It is a surprisingly good setup and so far appears to be of great quality. Very happy with my gas bar combo.

Dave, Cloughs are going for a lot more then 2k these days :)   More like 5-7k.    Insanity.

Man am I ever out of the loop, just looked at the Angling Specialties facebook page, $1450 for one of there reels, new ?. I've bought new vehicles for less than a Clough

Thanks for all the tips everyone! 

 

Bought the stradic last week and tested it out this weekend.  LOVE it...  Only caught a we small rock bass and sun fish.  But boy did they come up smooth!!

Good choice.  You’ll have it for a very long time!
