Default Calcutta B Baitcasting Reel

I am going to get a Calcutta B Baitcasting Reel very soon and want some tips on which kind to buy. What is the difference between an 201B and A 200B? in the Specs there is no different is it the way it looks or something else? Anything will help. Or if you know a better baitcaster($150-$200) to tell me about that will do good to. Thanks

201 is a left handed mirror version of the 200, the handle is on the left of the reel.

Depends on what you are using the reel for. I really like the Shimano Casiaic for pitching and flipping. It also works well as a regular old baitcaster. I believe it's about $189.99. But if you are wanting it for cranks, it's pretty hard to beat the Curado 200B5 or B38. Anyway if it's for all around use, then there are lots of reels that will work. Just personal preference really.

Sounds like you're getting into bass fishing. Why don't you go to walmart or Basspro and get you a good baitcast starter combo for under a hundred bucks? Let them help you choose one. Sports authority have some good combos also.
