I fooled around with one this past september out on Long Island, I liked the feel of them right of the bat, just wish I could of abused it a little more, to see what it is really like.....

Nice looking reel. Any idea if they are going to make anything bigger than the 100 and 150? Square handle knob is nice too.

To me the bail is another point of failure.

I guess they are making a new toy for the fisherman.

Think about it this way, if your bail actually worked everytime without closing on the cast would you still want to go without?

Wouldn't you rather have a skirted spool so your freaking braided line doesn't get caught under when you're on a high perch in the dark?

Wouldn't you want a longer cast spool that doesn't have to be at least 90% full and fully extended to cast at it's best?

Don't you have even more excess money stuffed under your matress just waiting for a new toy you don't really need

At least I'm sure that's what VS is thinking...Be interested to see how much a larger reel would weigh.
