Welcome! Those are great reels. Looks like you'll fit right in here. Looking forward to seeing what you acquire. The Megabass stuff is dangerous, it's a very slippery slope!

I like them too. I use a bunch of straight handles. My favorite handle looks wise is the handle from the limited zillion from Japan. Bit heavy but like how it looks/feels

My submission. Only one color here, but lots of choices...

wow i must try one of these on my lariat. what kind of lines do you perfer to put on these type of spools mono, flour or braid? You'll need spacers. These are 33mm, IS's are 34mm. Ian can make them. I'd use fluoro. I just got mine and havent tried them yet. Would these fit on a Steez or would you n...

Personally I like the performance of a IS over a stock steez. SV wise, if you want a SV IS, just pop a SV spool in....

I use my SV for jigs on an 893c, fun little reel. The Illusion stays on the shelf. The 68L and HH custom will be BFS rigs.

c40 Spin Elseil x Stella FI = love. I dropshot a lot of smallies too, rod is a joy to fish.

VERY nicely done. Great collection, be careful, it grows fast

John is awesome to deal with. Wouldn't hesitate to do any deals in the future, just a great guy

Did you see the 7"4 MH Glorious?

Issue is it's a RF action, Teal wants a F action, so don't think that rod will work.

73. Just the rare factor alone..... That reel is stunning in person as well. Plus the picture on the sideplate

I also use the hedgehog tool, very easy to use, and no issues.

Wow that's a home run in my book. That rod is on my want list for sure. You are going to be one happy man!

Saltwater safe at 5.5oz, nice. Wish it was at least an 85mm handle on the 7:1 ratio. Still curios about the zero adjuster. In the latest video they say it doesnt need adjusting unless you swap spools...so is it non adjustable or just set perfect from the factory and dont dare touch it? :lol: This i...
