Nowadays, it’s the size and line capacity (and the size of the drag washers). But back when I was a kid, a buddy of mine showed up to fish off the pier with a freshwater reel, while I had my Penn spinning reel of the same size. I used my reel for years — his was good for that one trip — it rusted!
But nowadays, I think all reasonable reels are corrosion-resistant enough to use in the salt.

Need one that can bring in all fish size from Crappie- Walleye for not that much money 50-$100 ……. probably be shopinf at Basspro,walmart,Meijer,Cabelas or Dick’s sporting goods.
Which model would you get if money were not an object.
My wife and myself have took up fishing this year, and we have quickly became addicted to it. Yesterday I think I —about— caught my first, really, nice sized fish. I had closed face Zebco (Used one, someone gave me haha). Anyway we fought for 2 or 3 minutes and finally he took all my line, and I had my own version of Moby Dick to talk about… Since he stole my 5 dollar lure.
So we have decided to throw our ghetto poles away and get us some fairly decent ones. So brings me to the question, what should we get.
1. For pure fresh water fishing
2. I want them to be a Spinning Reel
3. Between 50 to 100 bucks for Reel/rod (Don’t have that much to spend)
4. I want to be able to handle some large fish. I want to be able to feel like anything I hook I will be able to bring in (In the fresh water).
That’s about it, we don’t have a lot more money to throw into this venture. As I said though 50 to 100 dollars per rod/reel be ok, closer to 50 the better though!
Thanks a bunch!
i just will be fishing bass, walleye, anything you can find in a southeast michigan lake, it is a pretty big size lake, i usually fish in the 5-8 foot waters, but sometimes i take a boat out to the drop off. Anyways, where can i go to start making my own lures?

I would like to get a nice reel for my husband for his first father’s day. He mainly fishes in lakes and creeks. Occasionally on the river. I have no idea what to look for in a good reel. What should I look for or what is a good reel to buy? I don’t want to spend over a $100. The reel would be for a Cabela’s 7′ 0″ rod.
