Terrific Reels for the $I have about 8 of these reels. On one the anti reverse failed this year leaving it in "open" position but no trouble whatsoever with the rest. They cast VERY smooth, are light weight and easy to operate and are surprisingly very good quality for the price point. I find the '25 model (my favorite) paired with a light or ultralight rod is ideal for panfish and can also work for bass. The '30 is better for bass and small catfish. The 35's and up are too heavy for bass and there are other reels better suited to large catfish. Tight lines!

extremely smoothAfter hearing my fellow fishermen rave about the quality of this reeel i had to see for myself. The president is hands down the best reel i have ever purchased and was well worth the price.

Doesn’t cast very far imhoI’ve had this reel for a couple months now and ive been fairly satisfied with it thus far. It’s made of quality parts with a snappy bail arm. The handle sticks out a little, much like previous models (which I like). It feels natural in the hand. Drag works well, caught many 3-4lb largemouth and catfish on it. The only drawback is that it doesn’t cast very far with fluorocarbon for some reason. The castability with braid is what you should receive with fluorocarbon in my humble opinion. At any rate, for the price point it’s hard to beat. Pflueger has great customer service in my prior experience, so it’ll stay in the tackle box.

You CAN’T beat the price.I shopped around for various reels and noticed the President on sale $20 off at Cabela’s. It was a no brainer. I opted for the PRESSP35X v2 (not sure what’s new) along with P-Line 10 lb Fluroclear and a 7 foot Ugly Stik GX2. I used it in rain and the line casts buttery smooth. No snags, no bird nests. I like that the 10# Flurocarbon line is very thin and almost invisible in the water. Hauled in a 4lb bass and a 24-inch walleye on the same trip. Snagged a 20-inch sucker (pulled like a beast) which gave the reel a workout. The angling specialist at Cabela’s said most folks buy cheap line that’s stiff can bung up the works. So far, so good.

Drop Shot
Reel Size – The typical beginner bass angler will use a 2500 size spinning reel for finesse fishing, but the professional fishermen have started turning to the bigger 3000 size reels because they actually reduce some line twist thanks to the larger diameter spool.
Spinning reels are most commonly used in live bait or finesse presentations, making them very popular among panfish, bass, and walleye anglers. Small jigs, spinners, and small crankbaits are all perfectly suited for use on a spinning combo. 6 to 10 pound test line is perfect for most freshwater spinning reels.

can the sp30x be used for salt/brackish water?
Asked by: gibbs2
Thanks for your question. The Pflueger President Spinning Reel is designed for freshwater use only. If you do use it for saltwater or brackish-water fishing, give it a very thorough freshwater rinse immediately after fishing.
