Well, after a bummer day at work where things doesn't seem to go as plan, it took me 45 minutes to get home (10 mile drive - the quickest route).  I'm tired, got home started the daily household welcome home chores then I notice a box.  Thinking what the heck did I order? 

I pop the box open and find


What?



Thinking how big is this reel?  The box is pretty huge...then I unpack it...WOW



Nice Carbon Fiber handle arm and aluminum knob.



Matching number on the spool as with the plaque on the box.  Wow, look at the attention to detail.



Of course, I had to check out the drag system and find



Not bad.  One carbon fiber washer.  I will upgrade the felt washers if I decide to fish it.  Right now, it'll be a display piece.

Feeling loved...:)...considering how I was feeling when I got home.
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

That's crazy Bryan..!! I never heard of that one or the sweepstakes. I still have one of the "gold" edition 300's in the wooden box. I would never fish the one you have.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.
