TT where your wading up to chest level, flaptail's wading level would just about reach his knees. that is why he doesn't have a need for a VS.

Good question?? Here's another one - why does he care what others fish??

Where and how I fish - there is no other reel that can handle the conditions. I have a scrap heap of Shimanos. What's left are boat only reels.

Ride the spiral to the end...............

Curious. A 30% failure rate in a reel you need to send back to be fixed hardly seems to be a great testament to the reel's value. Of course they are sometimes fished in conditions where everything else would have a 100% failure rate, and clearly people who use them like them anyways (which is probably the best testament to a product's value). Still, the poll results seem to suggest there is plenty of room for improvement in the product. Obviously what ZB is trying to do, though building something better AT GREATER COST is not exactly brilliant engineering.
