I've got 6 6500SS' and thankfully have not had much issue with premature bail flipation, and I have been casting with these reels for yeeeaaarrrrssss. I have been one to line up the line roller so it is closest to my finger and that has helped, but I can only remember a handful of times I've had a cast stopped short because of the bail flipping from gravity/G-Force. These reels have to be the 5.7 Litre Chevy/GM 350 motor for reliablity and ease of maintenance. Just solid and tough.
