VSB150: bailed Van Staal
 

The bailed Van Staals have arrived. A little late but still in time for Christmas. VSB150's only, all colors. Hopefully we'll have them on the web in the next few days.

I want one of those reels but I have to wait till after the holiday.
I think it will be a great Eel reel

:love:

How does this reel spool and handle braid as compared to a shimano or daiwa?

Have they changed the way the reel lays line on or does it still end up in an hourglass shape?

Thanks

I can't remember. It never tangled while I was using it and I put a lot of hours on it, but the same could be said for the bailess VS. I'll try and remember to take a look today.

I guess it still does the hourglass thing. I never really pay attention, as long as it doesn't tangle I don't really care how it's stacked.
