Default Re: Reel shopping in north jersey

Cant help you with up North, but think you should wait for the shows as said or come south to shore tackle stores. Heres some of what I found:


lefty star drag: Akios , Calcutta 400b, Saltiga 30, Abu Revo Toro Nacl 60
lefty lever drag: Avet, Accurate 400, Canyon, Atlas, PE, Penn Squall (lever or star)
I have been researching this for hours and hours last several days. As far as which reel is best, don't let anyone tell you its "this one"...its ALL just opinion. Problem is you will not find many lefties to handle and most will have to be ordered. Take your rod and slap on the righties for weight and balance and then order. Lefty Avets are more readily available at tackle stores and on line. I am having a tog rod being built starting tomorrow on a seeker blank either med S hercules, super togger, or Seeker sw 808...not sure probably going to par it with an Accurate 400 extreme. If you want more info of what I found, and of course my opinion, and compare notes feel free to PM me
