Swampfoxforeman 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2019 I just seen on my card I have $90 in awards. So I could get the Lamson liquid for around $10. Lamson remix for around $80. The loop evotec g4 for $80-95. I also can get the Galvan rush lite with military discount n my award points for around $160. I would have to buy backing and line for the reels except the The Galvan comes with SA fly line. Any thoughts on which 6wt I should go with? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
utyer 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2019 I have been fishing with 2 different Lamson reels for more than 10 years, they have excellent drags and have stood the test of rough use, larger fish, and saltwater. If it were me, I would stay with Lamson. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swampfoxforeman 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2019 I have heard Lamson are good. The only thing about the liquid that Im concerned with is the cast factor being it is made completely of cast and 100% overseas. The Lamson remix is cast spool with CNC frame so 50% overseas and 50% USA made. The loop and Galvan is all CNC. Loop is made in S. Korea, and the Galvan is USA made.

Swampfoxforeman 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2019 Well with much pondering and head banging I decided to go with the Allan Kraken in this color with orange backing and and maybe willow color line. https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-cb32...=2&imbypass=on what y’all think?

I'm not out to impress and if a reel cost more than 20$ I'll look on ebay.to find a Pflueger. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Avidmax is having a sale right now on Lamson Speedster. 6wt $181.49 That's a pretty sweet price on a really nice reel. I have a speedster and a Guru 2. Love both of them.
