The 7000 C3 is an awfully big reel. I'm wondering if John is right and I should go with a 6500 sized reel for my eeling and large plugs.

The 7000C3 is worth about 160 bucks. I didn't pay that but that's irrelevant. If you wanted to buy one, 160 is the price. You think it would be smart to put the 7000 up for a trade for a 6500 Mag?

Now keep in mind, this reel has never seen water, never seen line, and just like it did from Abu. Complete with box, full tube of oil, brakes, wrench and the mounting hardware. Not needed but it's there if you want it. All the paperwork and all the foam. Just like if you bought one from Abu.

I'm looking for one that rates a 9 or 10 cosmetically and 10 mechanincally.

Smart move or should I just stick what with I have or should I trade for something else?
