I have fondeled the fin-nor inshore reels. the model 12 weighs in at 19.8oz. I've been told the body may be magneseum. The reel feels solid , smooth, positive bail action and the spool does come off w/o disturbing the drag setting. I also will be packing the gear body w/ superlube if I purchase this reel. I would add that very frequent dunkings would definetly require the side cover to be removed and the reel checked for water penetration. The drag being under the spool and out of direct water contact should make it "waterproof" under non-dunkable use.
