Re: I need some Reels!

Hello Scotty
The Daiwa RGP5500BRi which has a very large dia spool 7 roller bearings and a bait runner type clutch system which makes marker work a dream
Daiwa | Regal® Plus Bri
I think you will also find they are very competativly priced as well at around £47.00.
The best part is the bait runner clutch and therefore not continualy fiddling with the front drag.
daiwa emcast evo 5500 great reel even better price £37.99 with a spare spool i use one on my marker & on my spod rod.
availible from Danson Angling
okuma's powerliner maybe worth a try at 50 snuts
maver tica's are cheap because us carpers dont seem to recognise them

Re: I need some Reels!

Thanks for the comments, i just bin down to my local carp dealer and got 2 wychwood Equinox 12k 's-

· Massive 13 Ball bearing plus roller bearing drive
· Supplied with two machined aluminium spools
· Machined aluminium handle with wooden torpedo grip
· Instant anti-reverse
· High speed 5.0:1 retrieve
· One-turn multi-disk front drag
· D-Osc for perfect line lay

Comes with the spare spool.

RRP is 89.99 but as usual im a blag artist and got them for £65 a reel mind you i did buy 4 (2 for me 2 for my mate) lol.

Nice set of reels there mate, especially as you got them a little bit cheaper. I need to invest in a 3rd rod methinks.

Dont Jump in to soon mate the new Shimanos are very very nice.
I have a set of Basia and a set of Poweraeros and I can find little difference in them apart from the price. They all look sweet sat on my NG,s or Platimums mate but the carp dont mind whats on the bank just whats in front of them. LOL
