[QUOTE="poolie, post: 88541, member: 837"] I tell ya, I had no idea the difference it would make. Time to slowly start migrating my gear to a new level. I agree with Russ that having basically the same reels on your go-to rods all the same. I'm going to have to do a little soul searching to decide what reel I'll eventually go with. I was comfortable buying one JM Elite, but not sure I want to invest in a half dozen. I've read the long term quality isn't there so not sure. I take exceptional care of my stuff so maybe it will hold up for me. One a side note, I received the St. Croix Avid in the mail yesterday that I got off eBay. Holy Cow what a light rod. Now if I would only find 3 or 4 more at $100 each. BB, I see why you like them! --Poolie [/QUOTE]
