Re: Show off your BFS Casting Reels
Thank you. Appreciate the kind words. Took a photo of a bass next to my reel and she kicked it up and it landed on a rock, she then flopped all over it before jumping back into the water.Polkfish1 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 16, 2020 3:31 pmThat’s an awesome homage.

That is a beauty, and would cause people to take a double take.
Re: Show off your BFS Casting Reels
Just got this. An old Langly Target mechanical reel. It has very light weight ported aluminum spool and a short handle. The spool and handle free spin eaisily with a flick of the thumb. Should be a fun wall hangar to play with. I want to disassemble it and weigh the rotating assembly. Black Max 3 for comparison.

Target 340. This is also probably not a good time to let you know that Amo on Aliexpress has BFS spools for the old Daiwa Millionares of you have a classic round reel itch.zodiak311 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 8:01 pmWhich model is that Langley?

Don't have one. That pic is from Amo's Aliexpress site. They are a little on the pricey side too.
