Hows the Basia work out for you? Does it hold up well with strong currents? Does it bend under pressure when your reeling in a large? That's just one of my thoughts on the Daiwa emblem pro. Ive been looking around for a good reel that will hold under pressure like that and it seems that many people have said that the Emblem Pro does bend under pressure. The Basia is a sick lookin reel but a little outta my price range, so it seems like the PowerSurf may be what I am looking for, I don't know. I just dont wanna get stuck with a reel that craps out a yr later and I cant find parts for it. The whole problem last yr that I had was I couldnt cast far enough. No matter how hard I casted. I could have a 5oz jig on the end and it still wouldnt get where I wanted it to go, so Im trying to fix that. It seems that the PowerSurf is 40 bucks extra. The average price of the emblem pro is around 135-140 and if the Powersurf is 175 then it makes sense to go for the Powersurf... what do you guys think?
