I prefer baitcasters to spinning reels and need to buy 8 of them. Where is a good place to buy some decent cheap ones. I’m just spider rigging with them so they won’t get used much but I do a little crank pulling in the summer so I need something with a lager gear ratio

I used the Shakespeare Axiom reels that went for close to $20 each on ebay. Did a fine job for me til I moved south and trolling cranks doesn't work as well here as it did in TN. Never saw the need to spend more to get the same results.
Sometimes they have some good deals at Sportsman's Guide - Outdoor and Hunting Gear, Guns, Ammo & More!

I would reccomend checking your local area for any swap meets. They are a great place to buy or trade for reels. And also offload some stuff you don’t use anymore.
Good luck

Zebco protege, from grizzly jig. I'd always wanted to try left handed baitcasters, love them. $20 each. I've used them for crankbaits, spinnerbait, jigs.
I think they feel more natural, especially when flipping or pitching jigs.
My father in law just let me have 4 old Shimano Bantam baitcaster reels. They are small, which I really like. They are all over ebay for around $30-$40. I know you can buy new reels for less but these will still work a long time from now. I took them all apart to clean and grease them. Every gear in them is brass.
GREAT REELS AND A BETTER PRICE . :ThumbsUp
