Scorpion

Harry,

I wanted to get your opinion on those Shimano Scorpion reels. I remember from the NWC you mentioning that you liked them, and wanted to get your insight after a few more months of using it. I was looking for a good free spinning reel for flipping and pitching.

Thanks man,

Chris

Chris I've used a chronarch101 sf and a curado 201 bsf for a year and both worked great and are less than a scorpion. I can't tell much difference Ken Ken

I have a Scorpion that Harry got from Bill's for a prize at the MTC two years ago. It is on Dave's MTC rod. The Scorpion is a great pitching reel, very smooth and light. It is as good as the Calcutta's I have that I also use for pitching. Those are the only two reels that I use for that. Ronnie

I sent about 7-8 reels into Don Heck for cleaning and bearing replacement. I think there's 3 Scorpions in the bunch, so I can't wait to see how all of my reels will be with the new bearing. I too do a lot of pitching, since Charles and Dave taught me how, and the smoothness really comes into play while doing so. Jerry

I'm ready to get two more, having used them for over the past year or so, I am very pleased with the performance. Never let me down once, great casting smooth flipping and pitching reel. Can find them on e-bay for a decent price also alwaysfishking
