WTB bait caster for around $100?
 

What's up fellas thinking of purchusing my first baitcaster but not sure about which one to get any personal opinions will be appreciated thanks.

Check out OEX O'side for the used ABU REVO's. he may still have one for sale.

I was looking at those too but I stay down in San Diego

Bummer...out of stock!!!

Fuk that sucks

A new Citica or used Currado would be nice. I have the 200, 300 Curado and Citica. The citica is a good casting budget reel. I have fished these 3 reels for several years in the bay. I tear down and clean every few months with corrosion X.

I would reccomend Carbontex drag washers for whatever reel you get.

If you like working on your own reels, check out the link below. It makes a noticeable difference.

How much is the carbontex washers?
I have
Sealine x20sha
Shimano torium 30
Daiwa sea gate 35H

They range from $8 - $20. The torium you have would cost $18 for the 4 drag washers. If you like buying local, there is shimano dealer near shelter island that sells them. The company is also based out of California.

I noticed a difference in the smoothness of the drag and less fade on long runs. My TLD reels had the most notible change with the upgrade. My baitcasters drags were already getting worn out when I upgraded them so I'm not sure how much of a difference it was compared to new, but they are butter smooth now.

I think this guy is in Fountain valley or something.

I can cast all day with the 300 dsv i have.

ulgy stik CA 1170-1M paired with a citica 200 makes a nice $100 bass rig

okuma serrano. casts great, smooth as, if not smoother than my curado 200e. Find it on ebay for $125ish, great deal. Sells for 170ish at bps.
