Finesse Fishing Reel Off - Part 3

The reels
Finally I will touch on the Shimano Conquest BFS, this is the best of new school technology with old school looks and feel. The heaviest reel I have held the solid frame feels great in hand with the slightly inset brake adjustment means you won’t be able to bump your settings on accident. With a classic 6.8 gear ratio and 13 bearings you can’t beat this reel for daily use and abuse. It is the reel you will pass down for generations to come. I love the feel of this reel due to the slight rear balance it gives to the rods you might want to use. If it is in your budget I would highly try to snap one of these up if you love old school round reels but want the best of the best new technology inside.

Warning:
The hooks are sharp.
The coffee's hot.
The fish are slippery when wet.
Seriously, all the hooks sold on Finesse-Fishing.com, whether packaged as loose hooks or attached to lures, are dangerously sharp. Some have barbs, which make removal from skin, eyes or clothing difficult. Wear eye protection. Wear a broad-brimmed hat. If you fish with or around children, bend down all hook barbs and make sure the children wear eye protection and broad-brimmed hats. Be aware of your back cast so no one gets hooked.
Also, all the rods sold on Finesse-Fishing.com will conduct electricity. Do not, under any circumstances, fish during a thunder storm. Consider any fishing rod to be a lightning rod! Fishing rods can and do get hit by lightning!
Whatever you do, do it with finesse!
