#7121108 - 02/01/12 11:50 PM Spinning Reel Advice?
bclifford Outdoorsman Registered: 12/03/11 Posts: 194 Loc: Katy, Texas	So I am looking to buy a new spinning reel of decent quality. Would like to keep the price under $100 or around there. Going to be used off a bay boat for reds and specks. Any advice is welcomed and appreciated. What I use now is a my father's 10 year old Penn reel. It's always good luck. So any brands and advice/info is greatly appreciated. Just trying to learn all I can before I go blowing money this college student doesn't have. _________________________
