fcap60,

I bought a manual bail kit this year after a few premature closings that lost plugs. The cost was less than $7.00. Have not used it much yet, but just broke it out to use this weekend. Supposedly though if you have the reel so that when you go to cast the handle is in the down position then the chances of the momentum of the cast rotating the handle and tripping the bail is reduced. Although it may have been operator error on my part that caused the closings - I think that once I am used to the manual bail I will prefer it.
