Looks good. What is the specs of this reel. Lane Capacity and diamter and where can we get hold of this reel. Could be a great reel for plugs and spoons from the beach if loaded with 20lb or 30lb braid.

yeah thats what i thought we can lode it up with some kingfisher casting braGrandWave 5000BR

.Gear ratio 4.2:1
.Spool capacity: 410 yards of 14 lb line
.Reel weight: 28.2 oz This reel is a beast and will handle any fish, yet it is not heavy. Has two monster drags: main drag and baitrunner drag on the back which lets the fish run with your bait without feeling any resistance. Flip the switch and the main drag engages and you're on fighting the fish.dam what id do for one of these



Enormous 600 yards + line capacity, 5+1 corrosion-proof ball bearings.

Made in Japan to last a lifetime of abuse.
im gana give jj a call at the kingfisher and he sayd hes gana speek to mike perea

Did a search on Google and it seems that the rest of the world has them but not to certain about the price. Lets hope they make a plan and get sum in SA. As long as they are cheaper than the Saltiga Surf it would be great
