Great comparison and first look. It makes the standard Steez look huge.
Very interested to hear more once you get to casting.

Put on your big boy pants bro.... I don't see no line on that new reel
Re: Steez CT 700XHL
I am assuming that spool weight was WITH bearing right? If you mentioned it, sorry I was excited and scrolled past too fast. I really like that reel, everything looks good. I am assuming any standard 90mm handle works, even with the stock lock plate? If I save to get one, that is the only thing I would change. For me the 30mm spool's finesse ability is all the matters, but I do wonder about bombing larger lures like lipless cranks or even 3/8 TX rigs.

Yes weighed with the bearing.

I'm drooling. Have you compared casting against an Aldebaren?

Re: Steez CT 700XHL
Might be an optical illusion, but it looks narrower than the Steez SV TW and the Pixy. Am I wrong?
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

You would be correct. Smaller width, roughly same length.hoohoorjoo wrote:Might be an optical illusion, but it looks narrower than the Steez SV TW and the Pixy. Am I wrong?

It's like an Aldebaran and a Pixy had a baby.
