I wouldn't, for plugging or eels, unless you're laying the line perfectly, you might just want a fast levelwind.

What l-w reels do you have now?

Tobias, get the level-wind 6500 CS Mag / Mag Elite (same reel, different naming - stupid)... Awesome reel that only needs the drag updates to work well. The 6500CL Big Game is a tick or too slower (really not much) but ia also a nice, solid reel. These also have the slower 5.3-1 gears which are better for plugging.

Now MikeCC mentioned a few weeks ago that ABU will stop selling the Mag Elite in the US again (dumb) but both Mike & Don have those reels...
