    Pflueger President reels is a really SOLID choice IMO. I actually prefer the smallest one they make in the President series and it's ten dollars cheaper than the other models. The Trions are just as good IMO, I have several of them too. I have some old Shakespheares that are cheap reels but somehow won't quit and they're effective. My go to reel is the President and you would be impressed by it too IMO.

    ive got kinda a mixed hodge podge of spinning reels i like my okuma avenger ive used it heavily for the last three years. i have a pflueger trion and a president and the president is a little smoother. the oldest reel im still using is a BPS pro qualifier and ive used the devil out of it. one thing ive learned is its not always the number of bearings a reel has buts its the quality of the bearings that is especially true with baitcasting reels. the other thing i do is i clean and lube my reels thoroughly after each use and i replac the line quite often depending on how hard ive used it each time. i also take the time to wipe down my rods and i take a q tip and clean the line guides. the last thing i forget to mention is especially in my baitcasting reels i have nothing but aluminum frame reels. i got away from graphite reels years ago.

    Shakespeare underspin 6 ($14.95) @ BPS. Has dual pick-up pins and handles like a +$50.00 reel. Great for Bluegill & Crappie

    Pair up a Shimano with a B-n-M Ultra Lite pole and go nail the 'Gills.
