As long as its powered by a flux capacitor I'm in.

Seriously though does anyone have any hints? Most especially please just let it be known its not a lews/abu/pflueger/bps derivative?

That is cool. I wonder, though, if we're going to see yet more reels built on the same platform as the Abu Garcia/Lew's/Bass Pro Shops/Pflueger baitcasters. Good question. Would love to see something innovative rather than iterative. Unfortunately, I'd be willing to bet 100/1 we're just getting mor...

I see a few of these in the near future. I'm hoping theyre available right after Icast I need a couple reels for some rods I just got.

Depends on the depth for me.

1/8,3/16,1/4,1/2 oz for me.

Very excited to hear the review for this reel!

Love my okuma reel.

Where did you pre-order it?

I would also like to know.

And I knew that going into buying a custom NFC rod from them earlier this year. My experience with them was nothing short of horrible, and I'm left with a rod they refus...

Honestly I have no experience with the company prior to these purchases. I'm really not familiar with al the issue sthey had with the past.

Pretty happy with the way i've been treated so far and they will receive more of my business in the future.
