Boo-koo dollars being spent on advertising - magazines, mailings, and shows. Who ownes them, they must have $$$$.
Obvious questions - who really makes them, durability, parts, service, warranty, performance - anybody tried them yet?????

Right now "small" is the initial thought most will have when they see them. Then "plastic" when they feel them. I held one and not only is the biggest one tiny it felt fragile. But, I haven't fished one or anything so my impression of the reel doesn't go beyond that.
The rep did say they're bringing out a bigger one eventually, and I think that's when it'll get interesting for the saltwater fisherman. The current line up seems biased to freshwater and very light tackle saltwater.
