Default Re: Reel Recommendation

I've been using an Avet LX. I really like the lever drag for trolling. You set the lever drag light enough so line is not coming off the reel when trolling and when you get a pick up, move it up to strike and fight the fish on the preset drag.

You cant do this with a star drag reel.

You could probably get away with an Avet MX and use the same reel for other purposes too.
