Hi Guys
Has anyone ever come across this make of reel as I am having trouble on figuring out how to remove a collar that appears to have a pin but you cannot push the pin right through and it does not respond to being pushed in. Any help would be appreciated especially a schematic

Alan where you able to ceck it out? Wow! Nice reel and I'm not saying it just becouse I'm also made in Italy ;D ;D ;D
Another Italiano weighing in. Beautiful looking. I'd hate to see the price. So I am not going to do any further research. Italian engineering is either superb or junk there is nothing in between. You should see my espresso machine superb engineering ;D. Dominick
pdf of the schematic for the 50L HERE (http://www.antal.it/Duelreel/one-speed.pdf)
Duel, Alutecnos and (my personal favourite) Everol, transcend mere fishing reels and take them to another level. The £350 GBP I paid for my VJ12 will be money well spent, when my grandkids are fishing with it in 40 years time
very nice. thanks!

Dominicuccio, they're not that bad, $1000 for the 4/0, $1200 for the 6/0 and 1500 for the 9/0, I don't want to know what bigger models go for. I'm sure that's just a fraction of what you most have payed for that espresso machine ;D I take mine corretto please ;)
Never seen the Duel 50light, but I fish with a Duel Speedy 12 and 20 for grouper in Florida when I visit mom. The have a really smooth drag system, helical gears, and feel like a tank...they are as solid of a reel as one could get for it's size. I have used them over the past 6 years, and sent them out for service 2 years ago... they came back buttery :P As far as lever drags go I love it, however I'm a star drag fan, thus it's location now (Florida) only to be used 3-4 trips a year. I got them on sale for $220 each a while back online right before they did some minor changes (handle style,etc) for an updated version. I bet the 50L is a quality reel much like my speedy's... We Italians don't cut (too) many corners ;D Let us know what ya think if ya get one.
Thanks
Dom (Macchiato for me, please;)
