Hello everyone, first post on the forum. I am getting into bass fishing more and more, as it's become my favorite type of fishing now. I want to switch to a baitcasting setup and i'd like a few suggestions.  First of all, the main reason for me posting here is that i cannot find a baitcaster with the specs i want, and has line out alarm or drag click. For those who aren't familiar with these terms, "line out alarm" or "drag click" is that is the same noise that a spinning reel makes when line is being pulled out, or drag being used.

Also I am right handed, but i want to reel with my left hand. I know there will be people who will try to talk me out of it, just don't. I know a lot of people debate about this, but i am dead set 100% certain that i want to remain retrieving with my left hand. With all that said, let me give some things i want from the reel and perhaps some of you know which reel would meet my budget and needs.


  • $100-$130ish Budget
  • Left handed
  • line out alarm/drag click
  • 7:1 gear ratio



I have found several reels that fit my needs, but none of them list if there is any line out alam or drag click. This is a really important feature to me. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
