Need RECOMMENDATION for a higher end crappie reel

[Rick-N-TN]

Looking for some INPUT on what higher end reel to put on a Okuma 5'6" CHP crappie rod that will be used mostly for tight- lining and floater jig fishing?

I bought Shimano reels for years until I bought a Phluger and I will never own anything else. Smooth as silk..

Pheluger President. Great reel for a great price.

Like everyone is saying go with a phluger president. This is the only spinning reel on my bass rods and my casting crappie rods. Well worth the money and smooth as silk. You will not regret buying one.

Shimano Stradic 1000FJ or FL model. Especially if you like to use braid. Really nice smooth drag as well.
I have been using Stradic reels for many years and they have never let me down.
I have 5 right now and looking forward to adding a 1000 CI4 as soon as I can afford it.

pfleuger or shimano mid entry to upper end are both great crappie rides

pfleuger 6925 would fit nicely.

I vote Pfleuger as well.
