[spongebob]

Old reliable slosh 20 m8 still up there with the best also bg 20 aswell.

 

[Nooo Fish]

I love my bg30. It's more like a winch when I'm reeling in.

 

[dabcatcher]

as were in the ... all our yesterdays section...

im going to say the abu 7000.

theres not many reels been going for over 40 years and still being used today by thousands of anglers as there rough ground reels. myself included.

i worked there when i was 16, sold the best ragworm in the area

 

[tonybax]

think I remember you working there alan were you off the leam ?

 

[david.northeast]

Slosh 30. Half the price of saltist and for that reason you don't mind getting a few marks on it

 

[OuTkast76]

I have both the saltist 30 and slosh 30 and the saltist is an all around better reel but for the price of the slosh you cant go far wrong

you always had good ragworms on the pier,aswell as alan charlton @ malcomn hills.them were when you could catch nice fish.

Got to echo the other lads comment's,4 the cash can't beat a slosh,but if u want pure qlty/guts,the saltist's take some beating,got the bg30 n it's pure heaven to use,so smooth,cast's really well n sure does pull e'm in lolI know they r double the price but ever heard the saying,u get wot u pay 4

 

[TerryC]

Abu 9000 C, you can tell it's a good fish when it drops down to the low gear. A little tuning work and they make good casting reels for 40 lb straight through

Abu 7500c / 7500c3 hs Good strong reel & on bearings so still cast o.k. only down side is the retrieve is a little slow.

You've summed up the saltist perfect there mate. Had mine out today on the rocks and it makes me 525 USA feel cheap. When I finally catch a big cod I hope I'm using it.

 

[himself26]

In saying that the shimano torium is a good winch for its size & price ? However money no object I would personally go for a TRQ 100 ?????

Another vote for the saltist 30 used mine last week forgot how good a reel they are for the rough stuff.
