Team Daiwa Pluton 200H or Shimano Calcutta Conquest 400?
Right now I have a Shimano Calcutta 400B reel and G. Loomis Big Bait GL2-966 8' Mag-Hvy rod rated for 3-10oz lures and 25-45lb mono that I use for tossing big baits for bass. I use 30lb Maxima monofilament on it.My girlfriend thinks I should upgrade to something "better" for whatever reason so she wants to buy me another Loomis Big Bait GL2-966 and a new reel for it. She's thinking a TDPLUT200H or Conquest Daiwa Team 400. They're both gorgeous reels, I just don't know which one I want. Please help. Pros and cons of both if you can.Thanks.The Pluton and Loomis rod would more than likely be coming from http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/ and the Shimano from ebay.My g/f has bought a lot of stuff from there for me.Perhaps I should convince my g/f to buy all 3 of them? The 5.1:1 Pluton, the 5.8:1 and 6.2:1 Conquest?I've thought about to low pro reels like the Revo Toro. Then I thought about it again. I'll stick to heavier duty round baitcasters. In my eyes, I don't see why the Revo has the name 'Ambassadeur' on it... it's not an Ambassadeur. I guess if it means 'Revolution'.I'm not a fan of braid either. When I first started using swimbaits, I was using 50lb, 65lb, and 80lb braid. It was nothing but trouble and problems. I've never thought about fluoro either because I mainly use floating baits and fluorocarbon sinks.
