confused on bps reels
i was at bps while on vacation, was looking at the orange carbonlite reel, i was confused cause i was then looking at what i thought was the JM carbonlite, but it was on sale for like 89 as a carbon black reel, I then go home and look at this years master catalogue, the orange carbonlite and the carbon black reel is not in it, are these out of production or what, i wanted an orange one to match my carrot stick for a carolina rod

Guess you waited to long,other companies make orange reels abu garcia,Pflueger,mostly in a low profile meaning gold/orange.I had a Pflueger on mine and it looked good,brakes or clutch pawl dont last on the cheaper pfluegers,but one gets what one pays for it lasted a year and a half.

Yeah black only now check ebay for used ones
Kind of like the Kistler argon 200+ rods that went for 80 bucks,if you didnt get one you aint going to,and used they bring that as most paid 200+.They actually sent fact reps out taking them out of stores and dumping in dumpsters,where do you think many of the ebay ones came from.My guess would be divers. |

The orange carbonlite was replaced this year. Some stores still have some leftovers, but they are not in the catalogue anymore. IMO,the orange carbonlite was a much better reel than the new carbonlite, but the new one is lighter.
