Super User ATA Posted July 9, 2022 Super User Posted July 9, 2022 This reel is a tank, I have other low profile and I like them but this one is something else. 6 Quote
JS8588 Posted July 9, 2022 Posted July 9, 2022 Round reels just have a certain panache that you don't get with a low pro. I have yet to mess with BFS, but if I ever do, it will likely be a Conquest, despite my distaste for Shimano as a company. 1 Quote

I started to hate my conquest BFS when noted it's build quality is way fragile than the old Conquest 50 series. That plastic window is a joke, lowest quality possible material. 1 Quote

A future classic for sure, I'm taking mine to the grave lol. There's a reason why most of the Japanese finesse YouTubers love it, because it's one of the best. It won't cast the lightest bait, but man the smoothness of operation and precise tolerances ooze quality in spades. With the current exchange rate, I can't think of any reason to not buy one if anybody has been long on the fence about it. 2 Quote
