Calcutta Conquest BFS
Calcutta Conquest BFS
Just received an email from Japan Tackle and my Conquest BFS is on the way. I am normally a Daiwa guy but I can't resist Calcuttas.

Re: Calcutta Conquest BFS
Is it bad to be left and use right handed reels? Figure I could use both...
Also what was the price after shipping if you don't mind? Those have the Finesse Tune Brake just like the Aldebaran BFS right?

Re: Calcutta Conquest BFS
Mine is a lefty. Basically it is $50 cheaper at Japan Lure Shop. Shipping was $20 at Japan Tackle, I don't know what it is at JPlure shop. My impatience cost me some money. I don't know if the brake is identical to the Aldebaran but the concept is the same I believe.
Re: Calcutta Conquest BFS
I wonder if the conquest & scorpion bfs have the exact same spool as the aldebaran ?

I remember they charge 2000 JPY so it depends on USD<-->JPY.

Re: Calcutta Conquest BFS
I am holding off until I hear some comparisons between the Scorpion and Conquest, vs the Aldebaran Bfs. Boy is it hard though...
Get your kids hooked on fishing, and they'll never have any money for drugs or alcohol.
