Josh,,,,,,,,,,A lot of guys like bigger reels,,,I prefer a stradic 2000. I like a fast reel to be able to take up line fast, plus the stradics have a smooth drag. Trust me,,,,you need a smooth drag, or be a good back reeler.

I'm very happy with my Shakespeare Dimension Reel. I don't ever use drag. Soon as I hook up, Backreel is engaged. I have about 4 or 5 of the Dimensions. That' show bad I don't like them LOL

Is backreel a must in FNF or is Drag better or is it just personal preference???

I guess personal preference. I just don't like to use drag really on any spinning reel especially the FNF and 4 lb test. Drag + Spinning reel = Line Twist for me. But that's just me, so that ain't sayin much.

I dont backreel, its just not me....I like a reel with a trigger cast for the f-n-f which helps when you cast that thing. I think the one Im currently using is quantum. I also the the Shimmano Spirex b/c of the trigger cast and the drag.....just make sure you get a good drag and you'll be fine.....plus......I LOVE the sound of pulling drag!
