| Anybody see Keyes Outdoors on Sunday.
I was trying to identify the reels they were using. All I know is that weren't Toro Winches (blue) or Tranx (huge)?
Spencer had a gold reel.
Just curious.

Location: St. Lawrence River | Looked to me like Spence was using a TE with a power handle, Mike and Brad were rocking the D's and Dave was using a D or a Conquest. |

| At the start, Brad was using an Avio ? Could that be the name ? |
|
|
|
| Dave was throwing a Tekota(non-linecounter) I always overlook it as an option but, really solid big bait reel for a good price. |

Location: Northern Wisconsin | Someone was using a Shimano Tekota I believe. |

Is that reel better then say the 400b for large bait applications? They are pretty cheap at 140 dollars |

I seen that. I thought it looked like a Daiwa Millionaire (or St. Croix Avid).
Otherwise all others looked like Shimano's.
I also thought that was a Tekota. First time I seen anyone cast one of them. |

| It's definitely tougher. I have several buddies who use 'em and Dave loves his. Nothing fancy...not super fast but has a big spool if you fill it...they don't break! Also has that great parallelogram power handle. |

| The last two seasons I haven't seen anything other than Shimano's. I thought for a sec on the last episode that somebody casted a saltist, but tekota makes more sense. Lots of Calcutta D's, Curado 300's, and occasionally a Tranx if i remember correctly |
