Their timing is great as well with people getting new gear for the summer.

Nice review, you are right on about the casting range, but try swapping out the brake blocks from all red to all white and see what happens. 8-) Oh and Shimano came out with a shallow and deep spool options for the Metanium at the same time the reel came out :) X2. I swapped out the red blocks for ...

Nice review. =D> =D> =D> Wonder how a shoot out between the Metanium vs. Steez would go? if only to see what an extra $200 buys in the way of features and performance w/ a Steez. :-k :whistle: Or Met vs antares.. I see that comparison come up quite a bit on the forums. Those would be interesting sh...

I was surprised that the BFS out casted the T3 with the same weight and that the T3 couldn't dip lower with such a light and shallow spool. Bring on that LTZ/LTX review!

Different video, and yeah that looked like a kastmaster style spoon. I'm not surprised though as I've achieved over 110ft on my BFS with a 3.5 gram drop shot weight, the T3 Air should be comparable, but they were throwing lighter less aerodynamic lures in the review. 1\16th oz rooster tail goes a lo...

Must be a different video

If its the video I'm thinking, wasn't the guy throwing a spoon? I don't think the lures Cal was throwing were very aerodynamic.

The review stated that he used the max brake setting. The other settings backlashed too much. Maybe on the other settings the brakes didnt come into play enough since he wasnt casting very far and the rotor didnt come out very much? I'm surprised by the outcome of the comparison, but not the perform...

Shouldn't a titanium coated conical shaped tapered level wind, corefit body that allows easier twitching of the 6 pt drag star be considered a feature? :big grin: The corefit body would be great if they made the CC knob a little easier to adjust! The star drag is great and… I can't be certain but i...

Out of the box I can throw SK bitsy minnows about 40 ft on 4lb mono and the Volkey 6'9 ultralight but it does require a nice deliberate casting motion. Those weigh about 2.4 grams on my scale and are not the most aerodynamic lure. I also throw 1/16 oz rooster tails at least 50ft.(and I consistently ...
