[QUOTE="Sum1, post: 89706, member: 470"] Buy the best one you can afford. I think a big mistake is when people jump into the baitcast world they start out with a cheapo. Big mistake. It will only add to your frustrations. I started out with a bass pro crapo $70 baitcsster that sucked. Then a Revo SX, I thought that was the cats meow until I got my paws on a Shimano Chronarch c14. That thing is a dream compared to the SX. The SX was only slightly better than the BP Crapo but $100 more. Also I don't care who you are casting baitcasters into the the wind is like pissing into the wind. Also for light lures use spinning gear. Don't make thing s harder than they need to be. Even the bass pros use spinning gear for lighter lures. Learn how to adjust your baitcast. If your only getting ten feet out of your cast its not adjusted right or yiur reel is a pile. Sorry for being so blunt. But the fact is you can get a good spinningnreelnfor $60(phleuger president) not the case with a baitcast. They are more expensive. The cheap baitcasters should be used for trolling and not casting. [/QUOTE]
