juicy233 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Hi All, it's my dad's birthday in a weeks time and his reel (daiwa crossfire lt 4000) has completely seized up and is broken. I am looking for any advice on a reel around $150 to 200 to pair with his Shimano maikuro 6'10 2-5 kg rod. I was thinking about a Shimano nasci as I have one but the drag clicker has given me some grief so I was wondering if anyone has any other suggestions. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james Cutler Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 Nasci are a great reel. One of Shimano's best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie_fisher Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 If it’s a 2-5kg rod I’d pair it with a 2500 reel rather than 4000. Nasci is a bang for its buck probably the best value for money. I use a miravel and find it to also be a very nice reel in your budget since you want alternative options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juicy233 Posted July 15 Author Share Posted July 15 yeah id definitely put a 2500 reel on it he just had a 4000 on it before for some reason and ill probably go with the nasci, I've just had some small annoying problems with my drag clicker getting jammed but im sure thats just a one off thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R E G I C Y C L E Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 If you have issues with a Shimano reel, take it back to the store you bought it, and they will service or replace, depending on reel value. Their warranty service is top notch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaitDropper Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 Maybe a nice wee Voucher is the answer... let him choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
