Re: MORE reels.

All the 525's are supposed to be near enough bullet proof and cast well.

I personally prefer a 6500 though...

Re: MORE reels.

I meant the Abu 6500 range of multi's. I've got 4 of them. Brilliant reels. I love 'em to bits.

Granted, you might want something with a little more grunt (Sl20sh, 525) if you're over seriously rough ground, but most of my fishing is done over clean ground and I personally don't think they can be beaten.
