Re: Do you need an expensive reel ?
my favorite all time real if you asked me this question every year i fished would average out to be the old tin martin reel.. they have to be the lightest reel ive ever felt that actully worked well. now i strive for ross but unless big fish and lots of room for them to go and strong current is in the program i dont think they are nessesary.. i used to fish below this tiny dam, one day i landed three browns something like 17. 17, 19 inches in about 15-20 minutes.. the reel was of no consequence.. i knew how to fish that hole.. i would stand in the runout and when theycome to go down stream id stomp my foot with a splash and they would have to stay in the pool.. so in the creeks it will be your action/reaction that makes the day, not the reel.. dave..
