    Re: Baitcasters?

    I added some of the new Shimano Citica's to my service this past season and have been pleased with thier performance and durability....basically the same reel as the old green Curado's were that I have had in service for many years now. I will echo Col Forbin here..don't go too cheap...you will be sorry.

    Have not used them but the lower end revos the black max, gold max and ..... the name of the last one slips my mind right now.maybe silver....but all three are under 80 bucks looks to be a pretty solid reel, no where near as smooth but nice none the less.... it sounds like you have casted a few before but if you have not casted some of the really good ones you may have trouble getting used to a really good reel like the revo stx or chronarchs... just my 2 cents.

    Curado is about 2 years old and LEFT-handed. I will gladly accept a $99 money order. PM me and I will give you the address.

    I use right handed reels. I bet you would not have any problem getting close to that on Ebay. I have bid on a few, but always get outbid.

    No prob. I've been outbid on eBay quite a bit myself. Just got back from Sportsmans Warehouse- just need to put on line on my new Revo S-L. 104 and change.
