I can set all my reels so they never backlash.

It's funny because on BPS's website it looks like it already has started to overrun:
 And it looks like they are $40 at BPS. I don't know how they work but I bet your casting distance is greatly reduced. If it were as simple as this to keep great casting distance and not backlash I don't think Shimano would have their DC series of reels that cost $600+ to do the same job. That said, I sure wish I had one yesterday when casting a 1/4 oz. Speed Trap into 25MPH winds. |

The Dick's Sporting Goods near me has one of those Shakespear "Anti-Backlash" reels, upon closer inspection, the blue bar on the top of the reel locks into place just a fraction of an inch above the line. That is suppose to be the "Anti-Backlash" part of the reel.
