Took an hour off this afternoon, to rest my eyes a bit, inbetween batches of reels ... and took my modded Poseidon HMG Lite 13'6" and MAG-IT Trini 16A out for a testcasting session ...
Grootvis, Tackleholic and Enigma, convinced me to rebuild the guide train, from the standard factory-build Pacbay flip up and standerd guides, to three fuji lowrder LC Alconites, followed by 8 KWAG runners and a BMNAT Alconite tip ... maybe one of these three gents,can tell us a bit more, about just WHY it makes all the difference, but .... I will just show you, what the totally filled reel, looks like, before the cast .... and thereafter... reel is set up with the MAG-IT Magnetic Cast Control System and a loose spool, so that you can wind it and launch, as hard as you like, without ever touching the spool, with sinker in flight, for max, safe casting distance, in practical fishing conditions, NOT SPECIFICALLY FOR DISTANCE CASTING, but boys, does she sing and that with straight braid as mainline !!!
Many meters of braid,down inthe line column, saw daylight today,for the first time ever on this reel !!!
