Reel to balance a Nitro Ultralight
I have an Ultralight on its way and i'm wandering what i'll marry it with. I'm thinking i'll go a Shimano but really I just want a reel that is light, moderately priced and reliable. Price range is around $150 to about $250.
Thinking of a saros, stradic, stradic CI4 or possibly a second hand luvias.

Anyone have the same rod and a reel that balances really well with it?

Cheers.

hey mate
i purchased a powerbream finesse off the same seller and am very happy with it, it's in very good nick so i'm sure yours will be also
i know you said shimano but a second hand luvi would be ideal imo

cheers nick, very much appreciated. If I can get a cheap luvias I think i'll go that otherwise I'm liking the sound of the CI4.

The CI4's are going cheap at the moment at some stores, $221 for either the 1000 or 2500. Awsome price considering most places want $299 for them.

Hey mate,

My Nitro powerbream finesse has just arrived (not sure if it has the same weight and features etc. as the Ultralight) and will be getting a luvias to go with it. Will see how it feels and get back to you.
btw, I'm loving the stiffness of the powerbream. Cant wait to give it ago.
