hey guys,
looking for some info on what you think are the best companies for baitcasters.
i was looking at some quantum reels and a friend told me that pflueger makes good reels. and another said abu garica.
i do freshwater and mostly bass fishing with plastics, topwaters, and spinner baits and ive tried a few brands already and just want something that is going to last and not have too many problems with. |

"and another said abu garica. "
i have had bad luck with abu's as far as durability goes. Shimano seems to be strong in entry level, mid level and high end reels.
