From BLC: "An upgrade from Cheeky from the Drip this is a similar reel but fully machined. That means this reel is more durable. A fully sealed drag, light weight, and under 3 hundo is a good deal and hard to find. People who know math might realize that you get a discount by purchasing a line with the reel. If you need a new line we'll spool it with backing and line for you before shipping" 325- 2-4wt/375 5-6wt/425- 7-9wt "The initial design inspiration for the Burst Reel came from the complex patterns of interwoven branches found on mangroves flats, streamside logjams or beaver dams. We found that the very same branches we hook on an overzealous cast held the key to unmatched strength. Not only does the Burst Reel provide an interesting visual matrix, but structurally, it is far stronger than most reels on the market.” - Aaron Jacobsen, Cheeky Director of Product. The Burst Reel has all the elements we love: A large arbor, light-weight, amazing colors and…wait for it…a fully-sealed disk drag system for around $300 or less. Incredible, and incredibly Cheeky.
