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.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
