Hi,
Like everyone else I am looking for advice.
I have always fished using fixed spool reels and I have had no trouble with them.
However a friend recently lent me a small multiplier (Abu 5500) I have been having great fun with it.
I am thinking of moving over to multis but I dont want to dive in as I can't afford to change all of my kit.
I will have to use my FS rods with a multi for a while :g: !!
So, I am looking for advice.
What multi should I be looking for with a budget of about £100 (maybe a combo?).
I would prefer something a big bigger than the 5500 as I use 18-20lb for general fishing.
I fish on Chesil and Bristol channel so the reel will have to handle clean and rough
ground and be easy on a beginner.
I know that there are budget reels out there but I have been caught buying cheap stuff before so I would like to avoid them unless you guys know better.
Hope there are lots of good ideas out there!!:notworthy
