It is a nice looking reel. My problem with it is the price tag. I just cannot justify paying that much for a reel. I try to stay in the $100-150 range for the very top end. Right now I do not have any need for a new reel. Notice I said NEED, not WANT

Lew's provides some pretty powerful "buck bang" in your price range.

Okoboji, they sure do, but I have really jumped on the BPS Pro Qualifier reel bandwagon. Couple of weeks back I was throwing a lipless crank bait with one and really got "in the zone"-the rod, reel, line, and bait all came together and it felt like I was throwing perfection. It just all came together.

Reb...that made me smile I've got a couple of rod/reel/line/lure combinations that give me that same "invincable" feeling.

Great feeling, ain't it?

Along those lines

Every now and then you just get in the zone, and it don't get much better than that.
