I compared the Pfluger head to head with a comparable Shimano and went with the Pfluger. I have not regretted it (more bearings for same cost, very smooth)

I just purchased my 2nd President after returning a broken Pro Qualifier. I have 4 Pflueger reels in my spinning family now. The President is an ultra smooth and solid reel. My first one has lasted several years and is still going strong. I just bought the smaller 6930 for drop shots. The quality is superb and is on par with much higher priced reels. I don't think you can beat the quality and reliability at this price point.

I got this reel as part of a spinning combo. The reel is very heavy duty while still light. The bearings are great and it spin's very freely. Great reel for the price. I would recommend this reel to my friends.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by owenmont Great little reel
I have stopped using a couple of much higher priced reels because of this reel. It performs as well as any reel have ever owned. I fish for trout, crappie, and red eye. This thing is smooth and allows me to hit those had to get at spots while fishing from the land or from a boat.

My son and I have two rods for vertical jigging for walleyes: St. Croix Avid AVS60LF (6', light power, fast action# and a G Loomis IMX SJR 721 #6', light power, fast action#. We have used a Pflueger President 6730 with 10 lb Suffix832 and a 12lb fluro leader on both rods. Overall, happy with the set ups.But, the 6730 weighs 9.1 oz. I am wondering if a new President, either a 6920X or 6925X, would be better and offer more balance because they are lighter.
Any comments or recommendations? Other reels I might consider if I am changing?

If you are thinking about switching reels the Team Daiwa Legalis and the Shimano Sedona FD are very good reels for around the same price.
A:Â
Yes I would recommend the Plfueger President for it light weight and quality constructionA:Â
I have had a 6730 for about 2 years and it broke just after it was a year old.If it were me, I'd look at different reels. They Pflueger just doesn't seem to have the durability, but it was a nice reel while it lasted. And for a light rod, I'd go 25x size.

The Trion is a good entry level reel, but the President is MUCH more reel for the money, and should outlast the Trion by a factor of two or more, based on my experience with both reels. There's really not much of a comparison between them.A:Â
The president. I'm a believer now. Smoother than any shimano you'll use. I've not used the trion but would be safe to say spend about 20 more bucks and you'll be glad you did.

The President is a bit tighter and a bit more solid. The styling is also a bit more attractive to me. But, the bottom line is that they are both excellent reels: The top in their perspective price categories. It comes down to how often you use the reel and for what specific purpose. The President has more BB and may be a bit stronger, but both reels are excellent values. I own both and have been happy. My suggestion would be to purchase the Trion GX7 if you fish less frequently, but get the President if you are on the water a lot.Details:Â
I just picked up a new President 6935 and am excited to put it to use. What rod are you using this with? I'm fishing mostly lakes and large rivers (the Pamlico in eastern NC) for panfish and bass. I want an affordable rod that will be a great match for this reel. Thanks!Answers
A:Â
the Bass Pro Graphite Series is a good match for that reelA:Â
Personally, I use a 7'2 shimano convergence rod medium action. They usually run about $70 bucks.Works great. Light line.8 pound test. But I use this combo for drop shotting, shaky head and Texas rig. Hope this helps!

i would use an ugly sik lite, i use a 6'6'' medium action rod. it has a very good lure weight (1/8-5/6) it has enough guides, and it is long enought to make really long casts (plus its only like $30)A:Â
I have all but one of my presidents on St. Croix premiers. Great rods.A:Â
I paired mine up with a shimano sellus worm and jig rod. great set up. overpowering the largies.A:Â
I recently bought a Quantum Energy PT 6'6" medium action. It's a sweet rod for this reel. But they have discontinued this model... might be able to find one in stock somewhere. Not sure what the Quantum replacement rod is... but it will be a good one tooAnswers

unfortunately it does notA:Â
No spare spools.A:Â
No when I bought mine it didn't have a spare spool in the package, but I have had mine president for over a year now and have never had a problem with it whatsoever! Hope this helps!A:Â
Mine did not come with one, but they are available for next to nothing.A:Â

i would say anything between 15-30A:Â
Drop shotting is a "finesse" technique. Therefore, the "feel" involved is often subtle, and very light. This means that a lighter rod and reel is an advantage, especially if you fish long days. Therefore, I'd get the 30 size, and load it with 10 or 15 lb. Power Pro or Tuff Line, or maybe one of the new smooth braids (less guide noise). 20 lb. wouldn't be a bad choice for snaggy areas, though. Tie 2-6' of fluoro for a leader with a double uni knot, and you've got no-stretch, and tremendous feel for the bottom as well as light or subtle bites. Just my 2 cents' worth.
Top 500 Contributor
A:Â
well first of all, you dont want to use braid for a drop shot (or any thing for that matter) i recomend 8lb florocarbon. use florocarbon because when you are using a drop shot you want it to go to the bottom. use the 8lb modelA:Â
there is no good answer to that question. Too many factors are in play. depth, bait, species, etc. At the Price though, you can get two different sizes, and set up up to cover the spectrum.Answers
Top 500 Contributor
A:Â
if you are fishing for bass, you need to purchase the 6935 model. it hols 8lb. monofilement/ florocarbon and that is tought enought to hold big fish and is very lightweight (i recomend excel brand monoflement fishing line)

i guess you could, but would have to set your drag very low. i recoment the 6935 it holds 8lb. test monofilement/ florocarbon and that is big enought to hold big fish. (i recomend excel brand monofilement fishing line)A:Â
absolutly
Top 500 Contributor
A:Â
yes
A:Â
Additionally, a small reel such as the 6925 may be used for ultralight (finesse) applications such as float and fly or possibly in the situation of small lure fishing situation. Please see the previous answer for a more rounded reel.
