Congrats. I dont know much about the carbon rod line but for $100 or so for a baitcaster reel, that pro qualifier is as smooth as they come. I picked up a couple last year when they were on sale for $79.00. Nice reels.. Great for throwing smaller baits.
Thats awesome i hope you like it. I have a shimano curado with a st croix premier rod and all i can is wow. Ive never had anything more sensitive its crazy. Anyways hope u enjoy
