Rated 2 out of 5Â by FishinCoach sadly dissapointed...
big pfluegar fan here, was turned on to the president line and like them as well as twice as expensive other reels at half the price, very smooth and indestructable so I decided to upgrade to the patriarch ....
3rd trip out bail assembly fell off reel, bass pro made it right then exactally 13 months after purchase (one year warrenty) reel handel fell apart where paddle screws into handle assembly... looks as if all threads were stripped. New reel arm cost $27 dollars from the factory...
Very smooth reel but not worth the hastle...
Will still buy Presidents, but will stick with "Other manufacturer for my upper end reels

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Goldwing1 Smooth as Silk Reel
You will not find a smoother cranking spinning reel. Mine spooled with 20 lb brand and mounted on a 7' ft rod. Great casting distance on all types of crankbaits and plastics. Own several models of Pflueger reels. They are very dependable and never had a problem with any model. Buy it, you will be glad you did.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Billbob7 Great all around reel
You can use this reel for just about anything. Its super light and super strong. Also comes with 2 spools, cant beat that. The drag is the best ive ever had as well. I fish for just about everything and this reel has caught 30lb blues all the way down to bluegill with ease. Never has a single issue with it.

This reel is switchable from right to left hand retrieve.Details:Â
Any idea what that clear sticker is for that is included? Looks like a bandage.Answers
A:Â
it goes on the bottom of the foot of the reel. It helps it stick to the rod seat without any shifting. eliminates possible scratches to your nice rod and reel too
Top 250 Contributor
A:Â
The stickers are supposed to be applied to the reel foot prior to mounting on the rod. It prevents the paint on the reel foot from getting chipped or scratched when you tighten it down on the rod. It also helps the reel stay nice and snug while mounted on the rod. It's not necessary but there if you want it.Details:Â
can't decide between pflueger patriarch and the shimano stradic ci4. HELP!!!!Answers
A:Â
I have both, Stidic all the wayA:Â
personally I think my Pflueger Patriarch is smoother and has a better drag than the stradic that I have
Top 250 Contributor
A:Â
Go with the Patriarch. It's all metal, has a more solid feel, and has a little bit more cranking power. Especially when your reeling in baits that have resistance like crankbaits or when your reeling in a fish. I wanted to love my Stradic Ci4 but it lacked all the attributes of the Patriarch that I just mentioned.

u cant go wrong ither way. i like both reels but im leaning towards the pflueger because it has a titanium shaft. magnasiun body with a stronger drag. and the reel performs exelent. happy fishing.Details:Â
Hi all i just bought the pfleuger patriarch 9540 reel and i am looking for some recommendations for a rod to go along with it. I normally fish soft baits in a river for large mouth bass and large pickerel. The river isnt very deep probably on average of 4 feet and has a decent amount of debris as well as thick grass on the sides. Any advice would be geatly appreciated!!!!Answers
A:Â
i have the same reel, and two polls i just got this year a mojo bass heavy action which is great for tearing through weeds and lilies, and a grey field and stream tech speck < rubber worming specific modle. never would have thought about a field and stream until i used my buddies and the thing casts rubber worms so nice i cant believe it and far too. you feel everything with it and it has the perfect amount of flex at the top to realy cast wormsA:Â
I would suggest getting the new shimano crucial spinning rod. It is a good stiff rod that would be great for river fishing. Also the rod would look great on the reel. I hope this answer helped you in anywayA:Â
St. Croix avid series are great rods that have good back bone and good sensitivity. I own many St.Croix rods and love them all
A:Â
This depends on the styles of bait that you are fishing. If you are mainly throwing crankbaits and spinnerbaits, a 6'6" to a 7' MH to H would probably work well. If you are mainly using finesse baits, the same length may be appropriate, but look more towards the M range.Answers

I'm not sure of the exact weight but they are much lighter than a comperable sized reel, even the phlueger modles of the same size.Details:Â
Does anybody notice more or less line twisting after prolonged use compared to the previous Pflueger Mg reels?Answers
A:Â
To stop line twist after casting out your bait flip the bail over by hand and not by turning the reel. If you watch your line by turning the bail over it adds line twist..A:Â
I loaded my 9530 with 20lbs Sufix 832 Superline. This is my first attempt at braid. So far I have had no problems caused by the reel line managment system. The twists or wind knots were caused by me.A:Â
Absolutely not. The truth is no spinning reel will cause more line twists than any other. As long as you spool the reel correctly(have the line spool facing the correct way when you load the reel) there will be no problems. Something that does cause line twist is reeling while the drag is being pulled. I've used about everything under the sun and have never had one twist more than another. I have had them unravel after a cast, but that is due to loose line or over-spooling.A:Â
Seemed to work well when it worked but the reel just didn't hold up long so it would be difficult to truely evaluate it.A:Â
I did have some issues with line twist but hopefully this was due to fishing in-line spinners with out a swivel. I will try with some crank baits and see how it does.A:Â
My experiance because of the over sized spool, line twisting memory is reduced. Remember to always put your line of choice on correctly and use the correct line for the type of fishing you intend on doing.Details:Â
I like the look of this reel but I'm torn between loyalty to Shimano. The choice is between the Patriarch or the Shimano Sustain.It will be paired with a Loomis Bronzeback 7'4 M.
Thanks!

My friend had the shimano sustain while i have the patriarch. We have compared reels and we both agree that mine is the better one of the two. The quality of this reel is great. The only thing that was better about the shimano reel was that it could hold more line.A:Â
I own both types reels and the Pfluegers seem much smoother. My friend was a Shimano guy and he bought the Patriarch and said he wouldn't go back to Shimano.Hope this helpedA:Â
I only have one Shimano "Sedona" It is compairable in price range to my Phlueger Supreme. I also have a small President. In my opinion the Shimano sound like a crane next to both of them and weighs considerably more. I have no fear of putting any of my Phlueger's quality against any reel manaufacturer. Buy the Patriach and you will never be sorry.A:Â
Thats pure preference don't judge it by the name "Shimano" I have fished plenty of Shimanos and personally I like the higher bearing reels like the Patriarch 10bb salt water reel most Shimanos are not for saltwater this one is.A:Â
I am a die hard shimano fan myself but the patriarch is well worth it. Light, great drag, and awesome for finesse fishing.A:Â
patriarch is absolutely amazing, use for drop shot, smooth smooth smoothA:Â
Shimano is by far the very best on the market! Own a Sustain and think it is fantastic. Also own a Calais 4x8 DC - awesome! Plan to get a new Stella 2500FE this year.Answers

Mine has a Made in CHINA, stamped on it...A:Â
Phlueger was one of the original reel manufactures located in Akron, Ohio. It was sold to the people who own Shakespire and thats in Lexington S.C. Unfortunatly I believe it actually made in China.

The country of origin is China. Thank you!
