    Default What Spinning Reel?


    I started a thread a few days ago about what spinning reel I should use on a specific rod. The rod is a 7 foot, 6 piece, Eagle Claw Trailmaster. Well, Wally Marshall has sent me a reel to try out on it. The reel is a Lew's Wally Marshall Signature series 100, and it balanced out the rod perfectly. Now I have to go get some 4# test Berkley Trilene XL to line it with. I won the rod in a contest by Eagle Claw on facebook, and now I have this brand new spinning reel to put on it. Thanks Wally, your generosity blows me away. He's a testament to the great people on crappie.com.

    You can't beat free. And it's a pretty nice reel. I bought one last year to stick on a 8ft. Outlaw pole.

    In the late 60's my dad and granddad always used Mitchell 300's for spinning reels, in the 70's I used the 300 and 308. About 2 weeks ago I purchased a 310 and a 308 from Gander Mountain. They were on sale at half price, which essentially means buy one get one free. Both came with extra spools. I filled all four spools with the appropriate line for me. Sitting on pins and needles here Western KY waiting spring to arrive.

    Mitchell still makes pretty nice reels. I'd be looking forward to using on also.
