Need to add to the collection. I've become partial to the lews speed spools recently, dont have any of the newer curados but have a boatload of the old greenies. Someone said the shimano SLX is good? Whats the go to now days in the $200 price range? Also, for rods, I'm a do or die guy with falcon, is there another brand to consider?

Get you a DC so you can annoy everyone else in the boat with the whine. It lets everyone know you have your training wheels on.
Lew's are light and compact. I have a bunch and they are OK.
I am mainly using Daiwas now. I use the Coastal 80 the most. For freshwater the Tatulas are worth a look, and there are a bunch of different Tatulas. Those or the Zillions.

It was Roger who originally recommended the SLX, if I remember correctly. I’m a fan of them…been throwing them the last couple of years and no major issues. I’m also not the best at taking care of my reels. While I don’t fish as much as Glenn, I’m typically on the water a couple of days a week at least. For $100, I think they’re hard to beat.
As other have mentioned. Nothing wrong with Diana’s, I’m not a huge fan of Lews.
