Van Staal X-Series VS100BXP Surf Bail-Less Black

A Van Staal is a reel for life and they hold their value well.

The new X-Series now has perfect line lay optimised for braided line and distance due to it's FlatWrap Oscillation gearing and a sealed MicroClick drag system offering a wide range of adjustment with a linear drag curve. Please note this reel has no bail.

Price: Many people will be thinking, "Should I invest this much in a reel" a valid question as this is in the Stella price range. There are two ways to justify the cost, first is that the reel is amazing and you want the best and secondly if you're killing good reels every year in saltwater then this may actually end up cheaper in the long run.

PROS:

• 100% Waterproof. (You can literally wind the reel underwater)
• Very tough.
• Beautifully engineered.

CONS:

• The seal that makes the reel 100% waterproof makes every turn of the reel feel stiff.
• Heavy.
