I thinkin about getting one for flounder fishing this summer, has anyone ever used one, are they any good.the guy at sports authority was raving about them, but they are a bit pricy?

Rockhead,
Sports Authority is a good place to shop; but, check out one of the Wal-Mart Super stores. Their deals are better on rods and reels.

See this link that I had started on Open Forum. I found that the ABU 6500 reel they sell at WalMart was made specifically for WalMart and had slight differences from the regular reels. Not much but I found the 'original' for the same price at BPS online. I'm not sure if that's true for their other reels. I did pick up a 7' Berkeley Lightning rod that I've enjoyed for schoolies and small stuff.
ABU 6500C3 vs. 6500CL3

Hey Advisor, been to the Jordan lately?

The lowest price is not always the best price.
And as chest2head&glassy said make sure theyare apples and apples and not apples and oranges.
