Which reel to buy??? Help
I got a 160.00 dollar gift cert for Cabelas ;D so I was looking at a couple of reels and can't seem to decide which one to buy. Any suggestions on the two???
I was looking at the Pflueger Trion and the Quantum AC500CX. Thanks for any help. |

Re: Which reel to buy??? Help
I've never used either of those reels, but I think you would be pleased with either one. For what it is worth, I have used a Pflueger baitcaster (Solara) and I thought it was a great reel. Also, I only use Pflueger spinning reels for bass, pike, and walleye and they have held up well for three seasons and I don't see them quitting on me anytime soon.
All that being said, I don't have much experience with Quantum other than a few cheap spinning reels a few years ago. But, I do know that KVD endorses them and so does Bill Dance so they gotta be great right! |

ebook, if ya liked the Solara, you will LOVE the Trion, or the President.
Perkdog65, i would not even consider the quantum. Go with the Trion. They are absolutly amazing reels for the money.Pfluegers are all i will use anymore. Charles |

I think both reels are fine products. I liked the Solara reel better than the trion but was just my opinion. Quantum has the best reputation for standing behind their products. I would buy the Quantum , but I own or owned both brands and couldn't complain on either choice. P N J
