Hey gear guys! This any good?

Just what the title says....anything and everything related to Rods, Reels, Terminal Tackle, Plastics, what others are using, what works, what doesn't work, and anything else you want to talk about regarding equipment.

Revo S
Curado/Citica G
Lew's Tournament MG/Tournament Pro.

Out of all of them, I only have actual experience with the Revo S. It worked great out of the box and even better when I placed the Orange Seals in it.

The Curado G is the reason I stepped away from Shimano. Not because it is a bad reel, but because of what they did to it's name. Everyone I have talked to who have used them, say they are worth the money.

River monster has a few of the Lew's reels mentioned and loves them. I have the Gold and I have no complaints.

You would be able to get bearings from Boca for all of these reels too if that is what you want to do but they will work well out of the box.

Thanks Adam!

The LEW's look decent for the $$$
May I ask who sells them?

I looked at Daiwa...on the LB catalog.
Seemed it went from cheap to $$$ for the slick looking STEEZ!

Paddletales in Winchester has most of the lineup.

Daiwa has been working on their mid range stuff (Tatula/lexa) which have gotten good review. I just don't know much about the product.
