Reel

TY: What was the model of the reel you got for Chris last year for the big twin bucktails?????? Thanks

Also how do they work for other baits???

[Ty Sennett]

That was the "Shimano Calcutta TE Lucanus Jigging Version". Long name isn't it. Also just called the Cacutta TE LJV for short. They work pretty good for other baits also. I've had some issues with them but for the most part they are awesome. If you get one take the nut off of the handle and put thread sealer on the shaft of the handle and put it back on. That will save you a trip to the post office to mail it back the first week you have it.

Thanks TY; Another question, I have heard talk about the Revo AS Being the way to go so which one do you think is better???

[Ty Sennett]

The Revo Toro holds up better but the Calcutta is easier to reel in by a small margin. Better warranty work in the Shimano product but then again you pay for it.
