Just got my new MH in the mail. The reel is called the Tranx . Power to pull and the speed to burn. Maybe our burning 10's dream answered.

A low profile reel with Trinidad guts and level wind?
Surprised there have been no rumors about this.

The revolution begins at the Chicago Musky Show.


Will it be for sale or just to look at?

I don't think they will have a left hand, because of the 2 different gear ratio. I bet they will retail about $350 - $399 ????

Kinda ugly in appearance, but it looks incredible performance wise. I like Abu Garcia, but I think these just blew the Revo Toro line out of the water, except pricewise.

I peed my pants a little watching that. Look at 2:40 or so. Watch how slow Hamernick is reeling the Tranx compared to LD with his Curado. That's unreal. 42" or 30"+ per turn. I think our bucktail-reel prayers have just been answered.

Surely, one of the best reels ever made ??by Shimano !!! Full of power and speed at the same time !!! Awesome !!!
I am also very glad they chose Venice, a place that has the same name of one of the most beautiful cities in the world (I'm talking of the original Venezia in Italy ...).
