Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Don't waste your cash
Only of use if you have a T3 that moves a bit during a cast
I don't even use them on ecs/acs seats, almost exclusively on my T3/airbeam combos.

I bought some of the Abu Garcia versions. They don't fit at all on any of the rods I use. I'm not even sure why they make these. I'm glad at least africanbass is getting some use out of his.

Should come standard with
reel, keep your oil.
Sourced by Plat for me, however feel free to support your trusted retailer.
Can you help me out? Plat is a BIG site and I can't seem to locate for some reason. Typing
Reel Foot Cover into the search box comes up with nothing. I believe I have seen these in the past, but passed them off as a useless gimmick at the time. Maybe a http address for the rest of us? That would be way cool. Looks like an Edge might be in my future after all... Thank you.
