Those Revros are hard to beat at a $50 price point. If anyone can't find any in stock nowhere right now and are in the market I can give you the name of a dealer in Bristol Virginia that has plenty in stock and ships for free.

My take on spinning reels, no matter the manufacturer. The drag on cheap ones is junk. Spend as much as you can!

I love my Daiwa bait casting reel! I still have a few other reels that I use but when I buy I buy Daiwa! Now spinning reels I’m a 100% Shimano guy. I tried others but I think Shimano has them down! IMO. The quick fire feature is huge to me! One handed casting is too cool

I did not go the high, high end for my panfish rods like doctorxring and his bluegill sidekick Vogey did with their St. Croix Legend Elite rods. But I did buy 2 Daiwa KAGE ultralite rods with the KAGE 1000 series spinning reels. The KAGE series and a couple of other upper end Daiwa series are sold at independent tackle dealers. You can't get them at Bass Pro or Tackle Warehouse etc. Rod and Reel is around the $350 range. I buy most of my stuff from The Tackle Trap. They are located in Boaz, Alabama. Good people to deal with and usually offer the best price on rod/reels and ship anywhere. I get my stuff usually within 3 days when I order from them. If you want high, high end they sale that stuff too. When I was there last year in the store, they sold a crappie fisherman a high end spool for his reel that cost $900.
