They SEEM to be the NEW THING and Cabellas ,and pro bass sell them . Good reviews on the GOAT Model .
Made from a Solid piece of Aluminum ..... maybe a good product but NOPE ain't seen one or used one and most likely NEVER WILL less someone gives me one . since I have quite a few old reels ,just won't have a chance to.
Here is a link to the pro Bass article .
