That is a very good price for that reel! I own 6 BG10000CT (same reel just a little wider) that I use for all of my surf casting and they cast like a dream and are tough, tough reels. When I originally bought mine i used the mon the boat for a year or so before falling in love with other shiny things. They have caught many many many fish from everything from the typical ling, king, dorado, to inshore sharks, bull reds and black drum. For the money you aren't going to find a better reel. One more thing is I have 4 of the BG7000HSN's and 4 BG7000 and out of all these Garias the only failure I've ever had was the antireverse pawl broke on one of the bg7000hsn after landing a 60# ling. Abu did a great job with the BG series

okay...... i killed the link with the $88.88 price and replaced it with an ebay link for picture purposes (ebay price: $139.95)

does that help soothe that itch a little?

(hopefully ya didn't bookmark that other site

)

Naa didn't help, I've bought tons of stuff through FFO. If you like Stren mono you can get some AMAZING deals from time to time on there

)

Mitchw123456 · 03-09-2008, 12:32 PM

did you buy a couple of them? I've talked myself out of it now, it wasn't easy but i did. I can honestly say I ahve no use for them right now.

Bill Fisher · 03-09-2008, 12:43 PM

yep............ i'd already ordered 2 even before posting up (don't ask me why i did, it's a just a sickness i have)

actually i did it to justify making a small order of a few o'their $10 kona clones worthwhile (something else i didn't need).............. now i'm wondering about the 2 that i left on their shelf
