Just got back the reel with some parts installed, and reel tuned by Ian. 8-)

Can't wait to try it out.

Probably going to replace at least the handle/knobs when I can.

I am going to pair it with IMX 722c for now, until I get some funds to upgrade to a sweet sweet JDM. I managed to get some casts in with the set up. Even with a rod not rated for the weight, I still managed to get 24-25 meter casts with 1/8 oz jighead. It feels pretty amazing :D.

Nice, its an addiction, lol. I've had so much fun with bfs that my regular bass tackle hasn't been touched for almost a year now...

I hope to add the met to my collection soon.
