just remember when getting a reel to buy one that fits your needs. if your going to tx fish and you throw cranks and such, a few ounces can make a big diffrence when you do it for 8hrs or more a day. you will get alot of diffrent opinions that are valid, but for tx fishing and the best all around gear/wgt/bearing/ ratios. i would go with a curado e. although i like the looks of that revo reel, i have not had the chance to try one out yet.
