I have a BPS gift card burning a hole in my pocket and the big spring sale starts tomorrow. So, I need to make a decision:
1. Revo Winch
2. Revo STX
3. Shimano Chronarch
4. Shimano Curado E
5. Punt on a reel and get another GLoomis rod IMX
Which of the above should I do? I CANT DECIDE!
Many thanks for your input

Chronarch 200E from that list. What is the reel going to be used for? The chronarch has several speeds for each fishing lure method...
Don't think BPS carries the Curado 200E as they now have the G model and I would steer clear...

I'd get the rod. I'd then have an excuse to buy a used Curado and fill the vacancy on the new rod.

I went to Bass Pro in Grapevine last week & spoke to one of the people working behind the Reel Counter & was told that they have had several of the New Revo's returned because of problems with the Drag or Braking System.

Chron arch. Never had a lick of trouble with any of the 5 I own.
