Love the Spinfishers. Solid reels. I like the bail less version. Didn't know it was a NE thing. Gotta get me one.

Wow, a great improvement with the brass gears in all the VII models. Kinda lost interest in the Spinfishers after the V came out. But there is some great variability with the different types of VII's offered.
I have a Shimano Ultegra for shore casting, but it's plasticky and flimsy feeling, with some kinna zinc alloy main gear. The Spinfisher VII Long cast looks very similar, but much better, hmmmm...

This one is edited better, though we did it specifically for the folks at Tackle Direct.
