Stella and Fireblood

[jorn]

hey guys,

Im looking on getting a 2000-2500 size reel.

Right now im thinking of a stella 2500 FD or fireblood.

I can get the stella for about 500ish and the fireblood can be had for about 360ish.

Just want to hear your thoughts, is the 150 buck difference justifable? the big bonus with the fireblood is that its lighter...and looks quite nice, i had a quick play with one on one of shimano's new display boards and its quite smooth!!!

I cannot describe how much I love my Stella FD - I had always thought of MG based reels as feeling "empty" and not strong, but after getting my Stella 1000FD I have completely changed my opinion.

I also have a Fireblood 1000 which I've found myself picking up more than anything else - It doesnt feel as smooth or solid as the Stella, but it's not meant to. For $360 you can't go wrong, but personally if you can get a Stella for $500 I'd go for that!
