Upgraded Millionaire SW203

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.

Upgraded Millionaire SW203

Post by RMCatchNrelease » Fri Feb 06, 2015 1:14 am

So, I have emailed several members trying to find a way to add a swept handle to my SW203. Thus far, I have been unsuccessful. I decided I would go a different route and here she is. I can't wait to tie on a lunker plunker and let it fly.

Looks good! I believe there are some Studio Composite RC/SC handles that will fit without a bent drag star. Japantackle has them on their site. They are a bit pricy, but very nice handles.

Also if you are good with your hands, you can bend the drag star...but be very careful as they can break if not. At least I have heard this ](*,)
