Yes, a conquest with a BFS spool and mag brakes. I do not need it - but I will buy it.

Holy smokes! Both the baitcasting and spinning models that are new look great. What is a Complex Ci4+ spinning reel? Also, even the lower end spinning reels look very nice. I am very excited for the Chronarch MGL!
Will the Chronarch still have brass gears with the micro module? Will it still be made in Japan like the current Ci4+?
