My Personal Tank!

[Alto Mare]

Beauty of a reel, Sal. Class act move, Ted! Once again out doing yourself all around with these kits and especially that custom bar for the R+D department, AKA, Sal.
Sal, be careful pulling on the reel with so much pressure because if that line snaps at that poundage it's coming back atcha, OUCH!
Really special reel ya got there,
Dom

Yes Dom, you are correct! In the beginning I warned everyone to do this at your own risk. My testing line is usually 130# and the scaleI use is heavy duty, but I'm still cautious. I only pull on the reel when I'm properly positioned with one leg streched back.
It could definitely still get you, so be careful out there.

I'm glad you like the reel Dom, it does have more character than the Tib or Accurate frame.

Thank you! Yes, I'm planning on it, but still need to work a little more .
One good thing about that personal name tag, it could work for all here.
Alto Mare in English means High Sea

I always wondered about that, but now we all know !!

That appears to be a reel worth having!

Ted and Sal:  What I think I like best is that Ted made sure there was an acute accent over the "e" in mare.  Very cool.  Dominick

Lol, Chris and I had a few discussions over that, and in the end it was Sal's spelling that won !!
