Advice on reel required

[BIGCOL]

Had my first go at tournament casting on the 15th march at kirkleatham and had a fantastic day out picking up a lot of very useful hints/advice.One of the things that was pointed out to me was that my reel was not really suitable for the job (525 mag extra) a lot of the lads seem to be using abu 6500 reels,what i need to know is what type (IE mag wise/model) also if anyone has an address for somewhere that does conversions would be helpful.Thanks to all who helped me out on the day

Looking for the same advice chaps..

 

[leesdad]

it depends what weight of lead your going to cast mate. for weights upto and including125grm then a 5500 or 5000 size reel is best. for weights above this then a 6500 size reel is best and definately an abu. hope this helps you.
