PNJ Says to pick the reel that you like.Save yourself some money and buy used reels that are in good condition, If they are a good reel ,they will last forever provided they were taken care of and not misused.If the lettering on the exterior is visible most likely they have not been used very much.This is probably not what you expected to hear ? ;D P N J

PnJ is definitly right on about buying used reels. Reels are like boats when it comes to depreciation, they can drop a good 30% of the sticker price in 1 or 2 years. I like to just check ebay every so often for deals.

Jack, Zook,

I'll get a job at a golf course (Charlotte Country Club) a bike ride away from my house when I turn 16,
and I'll be able to fish at the lake that goes through that course (legally) all I want.

PS: SORRY ABOUT ALL THE POST,

I THINK I HAD WAY TOO MUCH COFFEE (french vanilla) THIS MOURNING WITH MY SMORES POP TARTS (4).
MIGHT ERASE A FEW.

Back to the reels: I have both and both r very good reels,but I like the
Shimano more it seems to have better drag system.
Just my 2 cents

I don't own any buzzie, but I've fished with an SX, STX, Silver max, and pro max. I've liked them all too.

I was looking for some new reels and I didn't want a thumb bar. I am use to the buttons and the way I hold the reel, I figured, the thumb bar would release the spool when fighting a fish. I was in Academy Sports and they had A Diawa 6.3 thumb bar reel on sale for $30. I bought two to try....thinking that if it didn't work out I wouldn't be in too deep.

They are great and the next time I'm in town I'll buy a couple more.
