VanBass1707 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 Hi guys I've got an option of the following two reels for my 8ft Fenwick AV 3/4 - 3oz swimbait rod. A mate of mine is selling a Daiwa Millionaire s 300 and a Shimano Catala 200, which one would you guys recommend or suggest would be the best for my rod?

massbass10 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 I would get the catala 200 because the diawa millionaire i had did not last long before it started to come apart. I use dit for light saltwater fishing which didnt help but it felt cheap and poorly made. I'd recommend you ask to feel them and see what you prefer VanBass1707 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSlant Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) Are we misspelling Calcutta? Or? Nope your asking about the $50 catala?
