Reel suggestion for new Pflueger Trion 1-3kg rod?

Post by Keepitreel » Thu Dec 29, 2016 1:16 pm

Hey gents,

Recently picked up a pflueger trion 1-3kg light rod for bream, trout and light fishing.

I need a reel to suit, preferably size 1000 and maybe 2000. Budget is around $150, don't want to spend much more than $200.

Any suggestions or does anyone have any experience?

Cheers,

shimano Sienna 1000 / 2500 or Sedona 1000 / 2500, top little reels .. use the money saved on other tackle.

I have 5 trions 1-3kg and 2-4kg with 1000 and 2500 size stradic's and IMO they are better balance with a 2500 size reel.

these have been kicking for 7 years and have caught a truck load of bream and flathead out of the gippy lakes .

so on that it would be a NASCI or a AIRD X .

I have a Trion 1-3kg with a 1000 Sedona.

Biggest fish I pulled was a 54cm 4LB trout

My favourite combo

I would be looking at the shimano nasci or a daiwa BG. 2500 for the nasci but I think a 2000 BG would be more suited than a 2500

Nasci don't last the distance in my experience. Better off with a sienna and pocketing the change to use on other things. Sienna direct to Stradic in my opinion from the Shimano stables.

very heavy if using for lure fishing

It's only 5 grams heavier than the nasci and lighter than a 2500 sedonna

**** I didn't know that I was just going on how heavy my 2 8000 are as for there size they are a heavy reel

and with 7+1 bearings it would be a winner

If you can get your hands on one of these in the 1500 size, you'll be pretty impressed.
