Are these reels even worth the money? ( Van Staal shop talk)

[@johnx4181]

Great as usual. Captain Cody what is your go to site or reference for tournaments on Ochechobee. Bass busters snd Rolands easy but the others are a tough get. Any recommendation?

[@chootum8295]

Like many things in fishing, the law of diminishing returns apply. Is an $800 Van Staal 4 times better than a $200 Shimano/Daiwa? No. But it’s better. The real question is whether you are willing to pay x4 the price for something that is 5% better.

That is the most overrated spinning reel , I use a quantum cabo. The 50 for snook and the 60 for pulling on the okeechobee dinosaurs.
