I'm looking into getting a couple new Torno's this spring. I've been looking at the 3004 and 3006 models (these are the 4 and 6 bearing models) I know these are both good reels and are what I'm looking for but I've found a number of 3003 models on e-bay for a lot less money. From what I can tell the only difference between the 3004 and 3003 models is a different paint finish and one bearing. Now I'm an avid bait caster using a lot of lighter baits. I don't usually use reels with any less than 4 bearings. Are these 3003 models any good, or would I be wasting my money?
Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology. Battery powdered items will always have their place. I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!! That would be a bit loud and smokey!
That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty. Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.
As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows, you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.
