| So I just got my second Calcutta 400 D off Ebay today ($326 free S&H).
I finally decided to bite the bullet after about 6 years of trying to crank in #10's with mainly Abu Garcia 6500s.
I'm a converted bass and pike fisheman from Northwest Nebraska, I just never saw myself spending $300+ on a single reel. Then again until that fateful afternoon when I had about a 30lbs Musky follow my bass spinner to the boat, I never thought I would be fishing Musky either...
So I sure hope you guys were right in recommending the new 400 D.
Anybody want to speak a little reassurance... |

| I lobe my 400d. It is smoother and smaller than my 400te. |

| I really like mine, I also recently picked up revo toro nacl, they are both good reels, but the 400D is just super smooth and really seems to cast a long ways. The 400D can pretty much throw anything, you will like it! BR |

| You will love it! I fished mine in some pretty harsh conditions this winter... Lots of ice on the line, it keeps grinding away no problem, like nothing even there. Super smooth and casts great. |

| Northwestern Nebraska? How's Cottonwood-Steverson coming along? I haven't been out west in several years, so might have to make the trip this spring.

Also, the 400D will make you happy for a long, long time. |

| I am going to be exploring NE this season as well, bit shorter drive from Denver than most of the Tiger lakes. BR |

Location: Latitude 41.3016 Longitude 88.6160 | On the 300 and 400D reels I can add 5 Ball Bearings to the reel, 4 in the Handle Paddles and 1 on the spool replacing the plastic bushing, just makes the new D reels even smoother then they all ready are. PM for more details. |
