Thinking of buying a new baitcaster...

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

No Spence..... :shock:

Take a look at Quakers pics....he's Mr. Anonymous... :lol: :lol:

I'm really confused now.....didn't you Quaker say the following?
You are right that a 5500 might be better than a LP Chronarch with a huge fish, mainly because of the greater line capacity, but either way you're using the wrong equipment.
Yet your favorite is a Chonarch?... :?

After running 100ft several times, even my mooch reel was warm. The gears on your Abu 5500 would worn smooth on the first run. Who's laughing then?

Thanks for all the info everyone. Well I knew that most people like to use heavier gear for the muskies, but I was just looking for something I could use the odd time for casting a big musky lure. I probably wouldn't use it too much for trolling. I would mostly want to use it for casting big pike lures and bigger crank baits.
