Fantasises

Mazeppa delivers again...constantly!!

 

[flippy]

very nice enigma.. thanks for this

that makaira looks a beast

whats pricing like a.t.mâ„¢.

 

[Enigma]

That was 1 or 5 world wide prototypes.

Is completely sealed with 18 water tight seals.....

Submerged and turned mechanically for a week and bone dry inside.

66lbs of drag on full spool

Preset drag with 20 increments that works like a Lever Drag, goes from ZERO Drag to full preset in one turn of the dial

All Stainless and alu construction with forged gears.

None available in the retail but they're expected to retail in the vicinity of R9000

Although this is a machine and we managed consistent casts over 145m with 80lbs I still believe the best value buy will be the Metaloid, the 90 would equate to a Shimano 14'000 size reel with Forged stainless gears, power handle, huge dual force carbon drag etc.

 

[flippy]

damn meneer.. what a reel

that impressive.. both the reels and chance to put a beast of a reel to the test

if that don't get the fish fever going then i don't know..

Awesome report Craig! Some nice fish caught there! I have a new respect for grinders now!

This is the kind of session Stuart needs instead of his blanks at Lennies and Voelklip!
