I'm looking for a new bass reel and need suggestions

$150 and under
Smooth cast and retrieval
For fishing soft plastics to spinnerbaits

Thanks!

I absolutely love the Daiwa Tatula CT at $130

If I were looking for one right now, I would definitely wait until the black friday sale on tackle warehouse and other places and see what comes up.

I have a couple of Tatulas and they are good especially the Tatula HD which a high line capacity reel but I still prefer my Revos over all my reels. In your price range it be the Revo SX. If you are comfortable buying on eBay you can get an STX for around $130.

Revo SX. Second on that list would be the Lews MB

Really great reels for the money.

Lews MB or Super Duty. Fantastic reels.

X2 on the Lews reels they have a few under $150

I have a couple of Daiwa CT Type R reels. Couldn't be happier with them.

Another vote for Lews

You can get two Lews LFS reels for $150.I really like them. Can cast little crankbait a ways with them, and they are smoooooth!

Revo SX, great reel for the money. The MSRP is $160 but I'm sure you can find them online for less than $150.

Tatula CT!!! $115.00 here. I use them and have been using Daiwa Reels exclusively! Daiwa reels will continue casting for a mile and maintain their smoothness compared to other brands. The only other reels we recommend outside of Daiwa is Shimano (another Japanese company). We've sold some of the top brands and there is a reason we continue to choose Daiwa as one of the number one outfitters for rods and reels for our customers.

I have the Lews speed reel and loving it, its on sale right now on TW. Also thinking of getting the Revo for my next reel for my other rod.

I have 14 of the lews mg cheapie. Love it! Casts well, great drag system. Some are 2 years old and never cleaned.. still working great.

Landbigfish.com has some good discounts on Shimano and Lews
