Re: Frogging reel suggestions

Looking for a 7:1 with 32+ inches per turn. What do you suggest? Curado K comes to mind, what does Ish use again? Going to be paired with an Expride. I currently have a 150-sized 7.9:1 Patriarch with upsized 95mm handle. It works, but I’d love a bit more power (and easier handle turns) to manhandle...

Re: Forward Leaning

All I want from Diawa is to bring back the sv103 and offer a compact sub-$300 reel that takes 34mm spools.

Re: Reel covers

I like the tackle warehouse covers for all my low profile casting reels. I think they only come in one size.
