Title: Red Pig Reels & Duel reels
Post by: turboal on April 21, 2010, 01:19:13 PM
alan, ever use or work on any of these reels ? what do you think of them ?
I looked at them on their web site. they look very much like Penn Inter. reels.
The duel's i have seen around for a long time. I like the speedy 20 reel. 6:2/1
and over 600yd cap and braid ready. graphite drag.

funny, i was just spammed by the guy at redpig.    it's not really something that i would ever consider using.  the company got off to a really bad start at the hull truth.

regarding duels, i don't think i've ever opened one up.  they're very rare on the west coast.  alan
