By far the best reels i have EVER used. Don’t like the rods very much (no feel what so ever). I have had the pflueger president for 4 years now. Using and beating the crap out of it smallie fishing in the creeks and its still kicking. I use it for walleye jigging sometimes too. That reel has reeled in fish from 1 oz to well over 20lbs. I would recommend the pflueger reels to anyone.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but is the supreme the high end one? I think it goes like this, triton - president - supreme.

I have heard that the handle is wobbly on the supreme, but i have never heard anything that bad about the supreme. Looks like a good purchase.

I hate my criterion, just a cheap piece of junk in my opinion.  The only reason I bought it is because it come on an allstar rod as a combo for $70.  I can sell the real for $35, therefore only spending $35 on the rod, then I can go buy a KVD or code by quantum and actually have a combo that I like to use.
