Bill smile I have no recommendations on this type of reel other than the trigger type she likes. Like I said, it seems like I replace the reel every year or so and she prefers these over light open faced spinning reel. it would be nice if the zebco model would have larger ratio reel, a 6 to 1 would be real nice. I am betting the zebco ratio is 4 to 1 or less. And if they had some tougher gears would be nice also. Ha, I have bought a couple of different brands and some of them looked really good when purchased but they all seam to have the same problem with not lasting through more than one season or so. Probably not much help here, others than it puts a smile on her face when she sees her new reel when we head off to White River Ark for our trout fishing trips.

PS, maybe if one fills out the warranty card on each purchase it might save some bucks?? Ha, I may have to start doing that smile
