I have 2 Pflueger Presidents and really love them..just had them for 4 or 5 months but so far have been great. have a 6935 i bought used..little big for crappie but i use it slow trolling and landed a 14lb catfish the other day with it. other one is 6920 i bought new and use for casting jigs and vertical jigging. landed a 6 lb catfish with it i caught using a crappie jig.. wish i was catching more crappie!!!!
I would say go with a Shimano. They have many models to choose from in every price range and from my experience they are the best spinning reels on the market by far.
You have never had a president thenQuote:

On a note related to the thread's original post, I couldn't find any reviews online about the Okuma reel he asked about.
Who cares which one is the best..... I wanna see these Shimanos that come equipped with jock straps myself :-)Quote:

Most important is quality of Drag.
I've got 4 Shimano's that I watched at Walmart for 2 years before they marked them down into my price range. They are a fine reel.
No jockstraps on mine either. That's probably why they marked them down.
Nope, according to Boat Builder it's because you bought girl reels! :biggrinQuote:
