Thinking of buying a new reel soon. I am leaning towards one of the new Echo Ion reels that Bill posted about, they have great reviews for the price. In my searching I keep seeing these cartridge set ups.
Anyone have any opinions on how these reels hold up? I've seen some marked at very low price points, and they usually come with at least 1 extra spool. Just looking for input.
FYI - I fish for trout, and since I fish mostly from a tube these days I rarely get a fish on the reel so I don't need a crazy drag system. I also don't pay big bucks for fishing gear so please refrain from recommending a reel that runs in the $200 or higher price range.
Thanks for any input.
Dan
