Hello,

I am looking for a lightweight big pit reel under £300 new or second hand.
Any ideas?

You can get a top end reel for that much, like a Basia, Shimano or Penn!! Just have a look at them online and see which is the lightest!!

The most pointless reply ever! Go and look for it yourself

Of course I have been looking but was hoping someone could share their knowledge on what are the lightest big pit reels.

Sorry I'm breathing mate. Don't they specify weights on the internet? Don't you understand how numbers work - if one reel weighs 500g and one weighs 600g, then the 500g one is lighter.

Most people will only have experience of one or two different reels, so you won't get a true comparison on weight. Good luck.

I would go for a Daiwa Infinity 5500BR that seems a nice light reel to me. Usually plenty on EBay well under your budget. Or £349 new?

Don't you know how a question works?

Someone asks a question and hopes someone else has more knowledge on the subject and can answer the question.

Or shall the forum just be shut down and we shall all go and google everything?
Why are you a member exactly just to fill your time with sarcastic replies??

Normal people do usually help me.
I simply asked a polite question and get sarcastic reply from Dave the donkey

Your question wasn't very clear though was it, you didn't state you wanted three and your budget of £300 is that each or for all three?

"I am looking for a lightweight big pit reel under £300"

How clear do you want it?

The word reel as opposed to reels tells me or anyone with half a brain that its £300 per reel.
