    Post Set of Baitcasting Reels

    I am looking to upgrade my set of Baitcasting reels from Revo sx right hand retrieve to something better. I am the type of person to use one type of reel being as if I have one curado dc they are all curado dc. The same goes for rods which I currently have All Mojo Bass baitcasting rods. If you have any suggestions for a good set of reels that are reasonably priced please let me know! I need about 8. Tight lines!

    If you can find the Diawa Tatula 100's, Ebay used to have them under $100 and you will love them!

    Daiwa Tatula is a heck of a reel. I have SV's and CT's.

    I second the Lews choice, I switched from Abu Garcia to Lews and haven't looked back.

    I’d actually say go with Abu over Lews. I was a big time Lews user and they seem to lose their drag after a couple years of use. My Revo SX outcasts every single Lews reel I have. Side note- the reels are made in the same factory and parts can also be interchangeable.

    my next reel is going to be a Abu or Shimano. Shimano seems to cast better but the Revo performs well above its price point
