Best praise vs top criticism for Quantum Accurist PT AC806F
“If you do go the casting reel route, i would look at something better than what Walmart has to offer. When i first bought a baitcaster it was a Quantum Bill Dance Bass Pro combo. If i remember right the whole rig was like $50-$60 new. Once i got the hang of it and was pretty good using it i decided to spend a little more and bought a Quantum Accurist reel. I think they were $100 then and they still are now. If i were to do it again i would just buy the better reel and save myself the headache and trouble. IMO, at the $100 price point your getting a pretty good entry level reel that actually works. The cast control, brake and drag all work much smoother and will make learning waaaay easier.”
