that's why they make so many different reels. i own several stella's,a few diawa satiga's and one accurate. you are right about the handle on the accurate. i had accurate make a handle with a full power knob on it and i love it. none of the stella's are the pg model and are the earlier 16000 series so maybe i am not comparing apples to apples but i prefer the accurates and the diawa saltiga's over the stella's. on my saltiga's i have also upgraded the handles to the expedition handles makes jigging much more comfortable with my big hands. they all put out about the same amount of drag so it really comes down to a feel and looks as to whats turns you on with the reels. all reels will do a great job at jigging and casting poppers and landing those fish after your hooked up. so get what feels great to you and enjoy the hell out of it fishing.

by the way randy i am looking for some solid colored glow in the dark jigs in a 10 to 16 ounces size. i purchased some from japan 5 years ago and can't seem to locate any more. they were shaped like the river 2 sea zero dropper long jigs but were solid glow in the dark and not 1/2 glow in the dark and some other color. drop me an email if you have a source.....rick
