The spinning reels are clean... The 50 is a no brainer. Looks like its going to be time to upgrade a few set ups.

I'll bring some of the new stuff up to Clear Lake if you want to try it out. I'll be there the same time you will. Get my number from Chris.

The reels should start shipping this week. As far as what dealers will have them when is something I'm not sure of.
