i put almost 130 nights in this past season. the vast majority of those nights were for more than just an hour or two as you know Russ. mid april into june, i am on the water 5-7 nights a week. from then until november it is 3 - 5 per week plus the 2 weeks i spent on cutty/cape/block and the many other extended weekends i took. i push my gear to its limit and i am willing to pay to what is needed for that which works the best for me. that is why i am getting the stella. like i said, i'll stack her up next to the saltiga this year and see which dies first.

i guess i am lucky i haven't found anything wrong with abu 7000's aside from not being waterproof. i don't want to have to replace that fleet.

keep the reel reviews coming in if anyone else has any.
