A while back Bass Fan had an article about Reese having a new reel sponsor, well today it was announced that Wright&McGill is making the Skeete Reese Victory reels.
Any guesses on quality???

I do hope they won't be Yellow and Black to match his shoes. P. S. Knew it!!! Just saw it on J's link. You get what you pay for. Just another $100 reel.

back in probably 2004 or 2005 Academy had a low budget line of reels, and it looks almost identical to those, just sppol and handle look different, but I would like to see one in person to see how they feel

Better to stick with Diawa or Shimano,imo. We all buy too much stuff. I prefer to save up longer and have fewer,but better quality, rods and reels. You can only fish one rig at a time and reties are free.

Those reels look just like pfluegers to me. He must make alot of money to stop using those $280 ABU'S and go to those things. I am quessing there will be some good deals on his old abu's soon.

They may be a great reel who knows, but IMO they look cheap with the sig and victory. I cannot believe he left Abu, I'm a shimano guy but also know Abu makes a good product and he had his name on one of their best reels. I think he is taking a big leap of faith making this switch. Can't blame a guy trying to better himself, hope it works out....
