RE: Abu Garcia Cardinal Series
ill tell ya point blank that after my dad has bassed fished for i dont know how long the best baitcasting reels we have come across is abu garcia but spinning reels cant beat shimano and the thirty dolla ones are fines but i prefer high dolla and would rather save up for them and if you want a great low priced rod to go with one i would go lightining rod last forever and is an absolutely great rods for 27 dollas

thats no joke, had a couple daiwas and a shimano that were horrible about the drag tightening up on its own when a fish was pulling drag.which if I didnt notice it it would result in a lost fish.

RE: Abu Garcia Cardinal Series
You got that right. My baitcaster Shimano loosens by itself and I 've lost fish because the drag was too loose setting the hook.Now , I'm always rechecking drags on all my reels every so many cast.
