I really like the Cortez side plates, but want to see the Lee Pro side plates too, can someone direct me where I might find them? Thanks!

Darin, eBay is probably your best bet, but beware that the KC model will not work with this kit, and to the best of my knowledge, none of the Lee Pro 4/0 size plates have clickers.  The Cortez plates have clickers, and are a superior product.  If there is any advantage to the Lee Pro plates, aside from an insignificant weight advantage, I am not aware of it.

Ok, thank you! I think I'll go with the blue cortez side plates, can't wait...

Darin,
  The best plates ever made came from Tom Cortez Conversions... don't think you'll find better quality, customer service, or anything else.  Tom is the best hands down at Penn aftermarket plates among many other items.
I also believe Randy is right about no clicker, too.  That's a deal killer for me.
Trust in Tom as we all do round here. 
PS- You're gonna love this kit... I can't fish with mine... I just stare at it.
Best,
Dom

Right on, Dom! I have two of these kits and Cortez plates are coming, and I have a narrow JM kit with the plates too. They are so nice I find it hard to stop looking at them, but they're all going fishing soon..... Darin

There is nothing like lying flat on your back on the deck, alone except for the helmsman aft at the wheel, silence except for the lapping of the sea against the side of the ship. At that time you can be equal to Ulysses and brother to him.

Beautiful work!

So it's safe to say it will hold 300yds of 65lb braid and a small top shot? This maybe a good starting point for me to build a tank for my girlfriend.
