>>685186If you love fishing, you won't have a problem spending money on a quality set up.
If you can, get better.
I have 3 Shimano stradic's, 2 symetres, and a Sedona after switching from using abu and pfleuger after 8+ years of fishing with them. I've caught 15+ pound trout on my Stradic 1000 series, thats how good these fucking things are.
The quality difference is immeasurable. I will never own anything other than Shimano.
