Now I understand..
By far one of the few spools that you just have to get..

That's a spool for a Zonda, which is a Megabass Alphas. Maybe it's the Alphas Megabass Honeycomb experince?

Glad you like it, Jorrick! I couldn’t tame my spool in my Zonda 68. But it sure looked nice…

I do like it but it’s another animal than the consugi
I think this spool stands on its own merits but it’s like a pixy with reach cause the Line capacity is there and more than you can ask for. I’m not sure how low in weight you can go but it was flinging lures a great distance.
Maybe since I am not the original owner of the reel I can ask Mr. Lambert what if anything he did to the magnets of this reel that will affect the performance

Interesting i found it too finicky in alphas, not saying it's unmanageable but it's limited to a few specific presentations, definitely not efficient for general purpose at all. It seems like you can't say your spool is good unless they are super fast on the internet now days :lol: jk

How are you liking the fantasista? Just ordeted one...may order another while they are $160 @ TW. I couldn't find a negative comment anywhere on the 'net.

I have nothing but positive things to say about it.
I’ve seen the prices too but I’ve got to unload some things before my wife gets back home. I love the rod even at retail
