I haven't paid more than 250 for a reel, kinda my cut off. That being said, my Shimano Scorpion XT is pretty smooth. It's also well broken in.

Mine don't feel super smooth, my chronarch 101 D7 felt smoother, maybe because its brand new and needsStrewth wrote:Metanium 2013. Hard to imagine anything could be smoother.

Re: Smoothest Baitcaster
Have to say my 14 Conquest is the only reel I've owned and which is so smooth I have to check if I've got my drag set properly (not completely loose).
Re: Smoothest Baitcaster
Mine was silky smooth out of the box in the 6.2 ratio. Also very smooth under load with large barramundi. No gear vibration and no noise. The micro gears and x- ship do make a difference.BRONZEBACK32 wrote:Mine don't feel super smooth, my chronarch 101 D7 felt smoother, maybe because its brand new and needsStrewth wrote:Metanium 2013.
