Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Not a clue. Seems to have been pretty quiet, so I'm expecting a fairly unexciting Icast this year.
That’s what I’m thinking. I look forward to it like the rest of you all but there’s been almost no chatter about it this year. Hopefully we are blown away.

I am going to buy one just to encourage Shimano to produce reels with names I can pronounce.

I love Shimano stuff but I hate DC reels. Nothing like a screaming reel to ruin a peaceful morning on the lake. I better start stocking up before everything has DC integrated
