Ardent reels

[fishon1219]

I saw an add in a magazine for a reel company called ARDENT reels. I was wondering if any of you have had any experience with them. I am getting ready to order one, but the price tag is $250.00  Their web site is www.ardentreels.com I have talked to them on the phone and they seem like good people. I did find out that every reel is practiced cast and if they cant reach 100 ft with it, it dosent go into the box and if i buy it and try it out a little bit and dont like it I can return it. So what do I have to loose. Ya, I think i will just order 1 or 10 and see.

i haven't tried them yet but if they made a adult magazine for fishing reels this would be at the center fold...

Hey Kev...If I had $250 bucks burning a hole in my pocket (which I don't), I would look at a Chronarch Mg and compare it to the Ardent.  The Ardent only holds 10 yards more line, but the Mg is nearly 3 ounces lighter...

Thanks jeff.
I own 3 chronarch mgs now and I love them. I always like to try the newest best thing and compare it to what I already have. So, I will buy 1 or 2 and see how they do and let all you board members know.

Only 3?    Should you like the Ardent more than the Mg's, I'm sure there are a couple guys on this board who would be willing to take one or more of those Mgs off your hands, you know, to help you raise money for more Ardents...

Jeff,
Maybe I will work out some kind of 2 for 1 deal. Give me a new Ardent and i will trade a MG and 2 cans of spam for it.
