I like the pflueger / president myself, seem to be good reels
Similar thread going on the main board. Presidents seem to be pretty popular. Doubt anyone recommending them fishes as much as you do Nimrod. Next time I need a new reel I might have to give one a try.

We have used the shimano 1000's for years hard to beat!!! have gotten a little pricey!!! Picked up a couple of Crappie max reels from the new Bass pro in Little Rock at $21.00 ea not bad comes with extra spool!!!
I have Pleugars or however it's spelled on all my poles. I've been using the $30 ones but last one I got the bail don't want to fully close and it rolls line all in one spot on the spool instead of evenly. So the next one I get will be the President series. Not the small ones but that next size up. Love my Pleugars though. I can speak for RangerJSB also when I say they are best ones out there.
I've tried them all, but the best I've found all around is the WaveSpin DHxL. Guaranteed not to tangle and casts about 30% farther. Only reel used by Disney World's guides. I also have the MicroWave Guides on custom Kissel Kraft rods. Incredible combination at a tremendous value.

They cost more but I fish with Shimano reels exclusively. I have 4 I bought in 1995 that I'm still using and I fish at least 50 days a year.
