Have you guys ever found a cheap reel that continues to work day in and out? Ive got an Acadia Sports ES300 reel that wont quit. I have to take apart my Saharas quite a bit to keep them smooth, and even then I would say that ES300 is smoother still. (only taken it apart once after a dunk) I think I got that reel in 2006 or so. Im getting ads for Pascifun reels on facebook and they have my interest. Anyone given those a try? My Okuma V series is ready for retirement, that was a workhorse for quite awhile too. Its binding every few handle rotations. (elliptical gear deal, cant figure it out).

I wouldn't trade my Shimano baitcasters (Calais, Chronarch MG, Calcutta te and a couple Curados) for anything, Im just not super excited with the spinning offerings so far.

I also am interested in the Pascifun products, prices are good and I have heard some good thing, a few not so good but more positive. I have been looking at selling them as well, but that will take some time to set up. I wish I had more info for you I am sure others will post up soon.

I'm satisfied with my Kastking Sharky II reels. Very budget friendly and they don't mind a dip in the salt now and then.
