D&R Sports Center has an online special for email subscribers for Quantum Reels.  Prices a little higher.  I think you have to order online, but...the sale lasts a little longer than Cabelas.

Erie,
Thanks for the heads up!! Great price on the tour edition. I needed a baitcast in the worst way. Didn't look like they had many left. They were down to one model.

Well, I bought one of the Tour Editions. It goes back to Cabela's tomorrow. I spent the better part of two trips trying to dial this baitcaster in with no luck. (I had the same problems with the Quantum PT a few years ago)  Cabela's supplies a return UPS label so the only cost for me will be the initial shipping.
I'll be picking up a new baitcaster in the next few days. Any suggestions?

DD,
I can't say enough about the Pflueger Trion for the price: (@ Cabelas (http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0011735116476a&type=product&cmCat=SEARCH&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&QueryText=Pfleuger+Trion&N=4887&Ntk=Products&Ntx=mode+matchall&Nty=1&Ntt=Pfleuger+Trion&noImage=0) - BPS doesn't seem to carry them)


I was a big Curado fan until they started gouging prices back in '06.  I owned a couple of Chronarchs I would use for lightweight crankbaits and topwaters.  The Trion has become my mainstay for light baits. 

HTH,
Jon

Havent had a problem yet with Quantum b.c.'s yet. Been running accurists and kvd's. Had a pfluger president i think it was and had nothing but problems with it, tried a different one and had same probs dialing it in. The funny thing is both came from Gander Mountian. So I am sticking with buying my reels @ Bass Pro. I tried to get them to match the price on the b.c's on sale and they wouldn't do it because it was a sale price and to big of a difference. Besides all they had left was a burner 7.1.1. Got that in a kvd already lol.

This year I have picked up several Diawa Excelers, mainly spinning reels but one casting. For $69 they are pretty darned good of you are trying to not break the bank. The only places I have found them are Bait and Hook in Fort Wayne, IN and Lakeside Tackle in SCS or online. If you are buying online remember [REMOVED - see No Links Policy List (http://www.greatlakesbass.com/forum/index.php?topic=11129.0)] has free shipping on orders over $50.

I been switching out my curados for chronarch 50mg's on paticular setups and absolutly love them. They cast like a dream and weigh 5.9 oz, the $250 price tag is steep but you can find power sellers on ebay who will sell you new ones for $180-200 shipped. These reels have made a big difference for me this year and they are worth every penny in my opinion. Match it with a high quality light rod and your fishing with a setup that weighs less than 10oz. It makes jerkin for 8 hours with a baitcaster less tiring and casts light baits a mile, considerably further than my curados did.
