Yep! If KK went this route with a regular kestrel and not the Elite... Imagine how much better it would been? No need to send out a ton of bfs reels to hype clout social media folks and actually work with real BFS anglers! Lol

I have a bunch of Gomexus handles and they are EXCELLENT quality. Having them make BFS spools is exciting and I hope they are successful, thus expanding their offerings.

It's not really a prototype. It's a finished model for Early adopters. Whether it gets improvements or not will be based on the feed back it gets. In addition, if will let gomexus gauge if they should be investing resources to research and develop more spools ;)

I think testing it in the windy conditions is better. If it works well in the wind. Then, on a perfect day, it should work great. Get well soon and be blessed. My friend.

But I caught some nice Crappie with it today. And honestly like I have told you before you are the main reason that I got into BFS and just know I owe you a handshake at the very least. If I could find a reel like this I would get the Gomexus spool for it.

The reel is not bfs out of the box without this spool or another bfs spool. We call these bfs conversion. I think u can do what you want with the combination of the stock spool and the Gomexus.. But do know u also need two rods... So u might as well get two setups :p

just test it today i receive it this week and it is realy impressive and i dont ave micro bearing do you think i should upgrade them and do you know where i can found some ?

@rawrfishing

3 ай бұрын

Glad you are enjoying it. if you can cast the lightest lure you want to cast with the setup with no problems, you shouldn't upgrade to micros as it will lose distance. for my heavier setups, i use stock or i change to ceramic hybrid at standard sizes rather than micros. Roro bearings are the most affordable at the most consistent performance from my experience. Japanese ones are more expensive like hedgehog studio and ZPI...

I haven't fished it long enough. I took it out one trout trip tho, I did like it. I wouldn't replace my dragons as those are longer rods and these are short trout stream rods.

that's subjective to what you wanna do. Zephyr is not a good UL reel. micro bearings doesn't help much in allowing it to cast much lighter lures. so I would skip the micro and just use standard size ceramic hybirds and just use the reel on a L or ML rod. I would skip the UL rod all together
