Awesome looking reel. Hopefully in a few years they'll come out with a cheaper version.

since there not out yet. rumored price, seen a couple boards where that price is mentioned but it's probably a regurgitated rumor bouncing around. but knowing shimano. sounds about right

What bass reel is going to handle 25lb yellow fin? I've caught my share of YF and 25lbrs would beat the hell out of any bass reel.

The folks at Shimano are brilliant at marketing and know what they are doing. I wouldn't pay $500 for that reel, but I'd bet it will be priced right when it does come out.

That reel would be a sweet yt set up for throwing the waxwing.

20kg is equal to 44lbs.
