Got my new reel in the mail yesterday:

Shimano-Stradic-STCI44000F-2.jpg

It's a Shimano Stradic CI4. By far the best reel I have ever purchased. Replacing my outdated Abu Garcia Reel.

Not sure if there are any fellow fisherman in the unit but I figured I'd share my excitement anyway.

And yes, I realize I spelled stoked incorrectly, it's early and I'm still half asleep...

I like both Shimano and Abu equally but I really love Pflueger. I have about 20 baitcasting reels with a mix of shimano, abu and pflueger and about 15 spinning reels of the same. Idk if you have ever bout a quantum reel but i think they suck ballzzzz same goes for daiwa products ick.

Yeah, my brother has Pflueger President, it's a pretty nice reel.

I stick with Abu or Shimano. I'm putting this reel on my Gloomis rod in a few minutes then hitting the river to tackle some sharks.

Nice!

I fished like crazy as a kid. Growing up by a lake with only 1 friend your age living 1.5 miles away will do that, it helped keep me busy.

I got a little addicted to ultra-light rods however; that was all we used in Wyoming for trout fishing in the streams on my grandpa's ranch. I had an Abu Garcia as well and it held up like a champ. In fact, it's still on my rod, and still at my parents house. I still use it when I go fishing when I visit.

I miss having a place to go so close... in Chicago all they have are these little ponds that everyone around here calls 'lakes'. You could skip a rock from one side to the other on some of these 'lakes'.

Very cool looking reel - I was just checking into possibly getting a new rod/reel since my rod is probably 20 yrs + old, and my reel is probably 15 yrs +

But i just wanted to leave a huge thank you on the forums to this unit, that i was a part of for so many years, and all the good times and hardships i shared with a lot of different people from all over the world.    Maybe i'll still see you in DoD:s   *Salute*
