Rounded bait casting reel recomendations?
Hi Everyone,
I’m looking for a rounded bait casting reel that I can cast and retrieve from ‘off-shore (like a pier)’ or ‘in-shore’ that has a clicker and a line counter too. I was gearing towards ‘Shimano Tekota’ or Abu Garcia Ambassadeur. Daiwa Sealine is in my list too but I don’t have any reviews about this reel. Just saw this reel from our local bait shop.
I'm looking for something sturdy, with corrosion resistance, light and can function just like my low profile reels (in case I’m lazy to bring both reels).
Any recommendation or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Looks like you prefer level wind reels. Please keep in mind that level winds will limit your casting distance if heavier test mono lines were used. Level winds got more moving parts that could trap saltwater and sand. Normally, those extra moving parts won't bother you much. However, if you got a huge, strong fighting fish on the other end of the line and the reel was under high stress, those extra parts will become a handicap. The reels you mentioned aren't exactly light weight reels anyway. If I were you, I'd spend about the same amount of money and go straight for smaller conventional reels which will handle small/medium tunas with relative ease. I'd prefer reels like Daiwa SL20SH or Penn 525 Mag. Both reels are very easy to cast and could cover long distances much easier than level winds. They could handle heavier lures/sinkers without any hiccups while still being able to fly line live baits. You'll get a lot more reel for about the same money.
If you insist on level winds, I'd avoid Abu Garcia reels because their drags simply aren't as strong as Shimano Tekota's or Daiwa Sealines. I'm not saying Abu Garcia aren't good reels. They're just not in the same caliber range as Shimano Tekotas or Daiwa Sealines that's all.
Tekota got a little edge over Sealine level winds. Tekota will fly line live bait fish or cast light weight objects easier and further than Sealines. Tekotas work a little smoother than Sealines too. Their drag strengths are about the same with Tekota being a bit smoother. I'll let you decide if those minor differences are worth the difference in price or not. By the way, I'd pamper Shimanos. I'm not pampering them because of their price. I'm pampering them because they will look absolutely scary after they got enough scratches on them.
As for corrosion resistance, all reels mentioned above did a pretty good job. If you rinse your reel off after each use, they'll all last a very long time. Less time was required to clean Daiwa Sealines though. If you don't like cleaning fishing reels after each use, I'd recommend that you consider Newell reels. You only need to toss the whole reel into a bucket full of freshwater, let the reel soak for about an hour and you're done.
Business is about sales and anyone who tells you different is simply lying to you. Your marketing campaign weather it is online or offline will have a better probability of success if you know how to construct a appropriate sales letter. A well constructed sales letter contains certain wording that tap psychological triggers in your particular target audience that make them want to buy whatever product that your are selling. The following are three necessary components in order to build a effective sales letter for your business.
1) The first component in building a effective sales letter and it's one of the most vital because it requires you adapting a certain mind frame. The ability to self teleport is being able to step outside of your ego and become your particular target market. You have to be able to see your customer and I just don't mean think like them I'm referring to becoming them hence the word teleport. You have to wear their shoes, step inside their skin, what are their desires? What are their dreams? What are their short comings? How can your business enrich their lives if you don't have a through understanding of who they are and what they want from life. Your particular target market should be as razor like specific
2) The second component to writing a successful sales letter is giving direct specific features of your product and how it will better their particular circumstances. The major goal here is to create the hamster on the wheel scenario. You want to now take the psychology you already know about your target market and begin to explain how your product will make them feel better and change their circumstances. First remind them of what their lives are like without your product, then begin by giving them tantalizing product details and let your target market take that and run with it. You want them to imagine what their lives could be like, allow them to fantasize. Remember you don't want to explain all the details of your product in your sales letter simply hook them and reel them in.
3) The third and final component in building a successful sales letter is presenting a call to action. You have to be very specific and let your customer know exactly what you want them to do. The last thing you want to do is drop the ball here. You want your customer to buy from you immediately, you don't want them to leave because chances are they wont be back. You have several options in this case you can build a sense of urgency with your customer by telling them that they must buy now because time is running out. You could let them know that they will receive an extra gift offering if they buy now. You can illustrate a certain sense of exclusivity by aligning your product with the upper crust society. The most important fact is you get them to buy, if you can cast your line and hook them but you can't reel them in then everything was for nothing and you wasted your time and money.
