Received the new Ardent Denny Brauer flippin reel yesterday and it is the reel deal. I could flip farther and the reel is smooth as glass also the drag is the same smooth. I only had one fish pull drag yesterday but drag was smooth. I tried casting it a few times and was pleasantly surprised I figured since there was no level wind it would not cast very good but it did. They should be in stores before long.

One of my favorite reels are the APEX Tournament. I have 4 or 5 of them and really like them.

Is the only gear ratio 6.5:1?

I will definitely have to try one out.


Thank you,

The new ones are so much different than the first one I have been using it more than my Apexes of Edge reels.

I have an Ardent Apex Elite in route to me I hope I am as pleased with it as the Lews I have been using. I wished I had it for Monday's trip. Will be spooled with 40# Gliss and hope to get lots of use from it.
