[QUOTE="JSutton1391, post: 368602, member: 15164"] Abu Garcia and Pflueger actually seem to appear at the top of my list for my price point more than any other brand. What about Mitchell? I see their reels at BPS, Dicks, and Academy, they feel pretty high quality and seem to get pretty good reviews. Their 300 model advertises 10 bearings, which seems a bit much. No mention if those bearings are stainless steel or plastic. Also, I was looking at one spinning setup for myself. I don't plan on buying anything more until I have further assessed my needs after a few more trips. Boys will be getting new combos for Christmas too, but those are not part of my stated budget. They'll still be using spin casters until the 5 year old gets a few more years under his cap. By then I hope to have some nice stuff to pass down to the two of them. [/QUOTE]
