Mitchell 302
I need some help. I'm looking to buy a new reel and a Mitchell 302 was suggested to me. What are y'all's views and opinions on that reel? What is the reel like in comparison to a 706? Thanks!

i personally don't like mitchells beside the fact that the deep spools hold a lot of line. I'd save a little extra and go with the Penn 706.. mitchells spools bust pretty easy too..

Thanks! I plan on buying a new 706 hopefully before Christmas. My buddy got one from J&M and he loves it. I think he said he planned on getting another.

So, obviously I’ve posted that I’ve been away for about 12 or 13 years and am coming down on the 26th to rejoin the community. I’m amazed at how much pier knowledge I lost over the years and so a few...
