spinnerbait reel?
I am needing a second spinnerbait reel. I presently have one of the old skeet reese revos that I really like for this technique. I think the 6.3:1 works well for this, and I like the longer handle. I was thinking about getting another one of the old skeet reese models but was wondering what else out there might work better.
Re: spinnerbait reel?
Revo premier but you still need the handle upgrade to get your wider handle.

Re: spinnerbait reel?
maybe check out a curado or chronarch, lots of people find they cast spinnerbaits well into the wind...if you like a larger handle check out the revo winch....its got a lot of power and the slower gear ratio could be a nice slow rolling option for you.

I'm not much on the premier. I know a lot of you guys are and I am sure its a descent reel. I simply like the older skeet reese model better. I actually have s 2010 premier I am going to sell or trade to get the replacement.

I've had pretty good luck with my Curado e7, but if Pflueger would offer a Patriarch XT in 7:1, I'd ditch this e7 so fast it would make your head spin.

TDZ 100M, it rocks for spinnerbaits!

X2 on the chronarch. A revo stx aslo works well for spinnerbaits.ecu daniel 14 wrote:maybe check out a curado or chronarch, lots of people find they cast spinnerbaits well into the wind...if you like a larger handle check out the revo winch....its got a lot of power and the slower gear ratio could be a nice slow rolling option for you.

Re: spinnerbait reel?
I have three chronarch d7s and they are great reels, just not the line capacity I need the way I fish a spinnerbait. My local lake has heavy cover and I fish 3/4 oz spinnerbaits on 25 lb flouro so I am needing a reel that will hold a good deal of 25.

Re: spinnerbait reel?
Revo Toro 50 HS might fit the bill. Long handle, 200/14# line cap, 6.4 gear ratio, and it's built like a tank. Don't be deterred that's it only a 7 bearing reel its still super smooth and you can easily add 2 bearings per handle knob, which bumps it to a 10+1 bearing reel. The reel is very powerful so it might make for an awesome heavy spinnerbait reel.

Re: spinnerbait reel?
TDZ 100M is a great reel for spinnerbaits but I also like the Daiwa Sol GREAT little reel for spinnerbaits, easy to palm, very light, enough line capacity for 17lb test, smooth winding, and the bid site has a lot of them.

TDZ 103M
CVZ 103s
Calcutta TE GT/Conquests 100
Calais 100A
Alphas R Edition
Depends what size spinnerbait, line size, at what depth and what cover?

Re: spinnerbait reel?
I prefer the JDM Zillion 100SH that allows me to burn 3/4 oz Double Willow spinner baits for smallies with ease. I am able to slow down with smaller weighted SB as well. JMHO though.
