Default WOW! what an amazing difference

well i got my LEWS Tournament MG Baitcaster in the mail today. this thing is sick!!! got it spooled up and took out in the backyard to cast it to get a feel for it.
i tied on a top water frog as to not get snagged up plus to have a little bit of weight for it, able to keep the magnets at about 3 and this thing flew a good 30 yards on a soft lob. & pitching is a dream ,which was somewhat difficult on my original reel, cant wait to get this thing out on the water this weekend

Congrats on the new reel. I have a few of the Tournament Pro's, they have been reliable and fun to fish with.

TP has a Carbon Fiber handle, dual braking, different drag system, and an additional bearing. It also weights 1.5oz less.

I say get the TP if it is in your price range.
