[QUOTE="Reeks, post: 137886, member: 1557"] I have mid level fishing gear, i use daiwa and shimano reels and pflueger rods. I have 2x daiwa sol reels in 3000 and 4000. Wasn't long after i bought the 3000 it started to feel "cheap". I've caught a lot of fish with it but currently it feels and sounds like craap. The 4000 is starting to feel worse also. My last purchase was a daiwa emeraldas colossal which i paid $375 for (rrp was $500) I have probably used it less than 50 times and it has also turned from a lovely smooth reel to a grindy/noisy one. Being a japanese built reel i had high hopes it would feel perfect for years.. But it isn't so.. I have used a daiwa stradic ci4 and it felt cheap. I believe in you get what you pay for, but do i need to jump up to a stella to be satisfied? One thing with the daiwa's are their drags are perfect imo. So what spin reels do you guys use? [/QUOTE]
