I was at Bass Pro Shops recently, and noticed a wide spool, low profile reel from Browning. Just curious if anyone had tried it, and potentially had any input on it. It is the MI20HA. Was thinking of trying one for small/mid size bucktails and maybe some smaller cranks. Anyone know anything about them? Here is a link to them:

David the Browning reels are very nice.. They have them on sale for $99 a few times a year.
Ronix where are you getting a Curado 300 for $170.00? Just wondering..

It looks just like a ( BPS Nitro ) they use to sell @ bass pro which they pushed as a pike reel if I remember right.

My buddy had a low profile browning reel that he bought at bass pro on sale when we were there for $100......it lasted very well for the price and caught a few muskies. It is a little gritty now but still works ok, if you're on a budget it is 75% as good as a curado for a while and costs less than half.

I have 3 of them.

1 - MI20HA spooled with 65 pound PP
2 - of the smaller ones; a 6.4 and a 7.1 both spooled with 30 pound PP. I use those for bass fishing.

So far no problems. I got all three when they were on sale for 100 bucks.
