Title: What size pflueger president?
Post by: bstawickiata on May 14, 2017, 02:47 PM

I'm thinking about buying a pflueger president reel that I can use on my ultralight rod during the soft water season and switch to my ice rod during hard water. Would you recommend the 20 or the 25?

Thanks!
Bob

for your ultralight i would stay with the smallest (lightest) version of any reel, so the 20 is what i would use. I use the them year around too.

i bought four of them at gander for 25$ each from their clearance sale a few months ago. now they are black and red instead of blue. looks like they bumped the price up some too for the new colors.

The black and red are pflueger presidents limited edition. I have 4 of them they are lighter than the blue ones.
