The Z-REELS Arrives!

The afternoon before jetting out of town on family vacation I spent an hour chasing down the FedEx driver to get the box containing my Z-Reels Natural 5 and extra spool.  I had been waiting the arrival of the reel for a few days and I sure wasn't going to let this box sit on my front porch for two weeks while I was out of town.

The Z-Reels Natural 5 is a smooth little machine in make and design.  The leather drag pad is a very cool idea and a neat feature of this reel.  I have several black fiberglass South Fork Rod Company rods to play with and this reel will be the perfect match.

Better photographs and a through report once I get back home and have some time to get this reel on the water.

Dan from K&T Equip, LLC was great to work with on this purchase.  The dark red spool had to be special ordered from the Z-Reels factory in Germany and Dan kept me up to date with frequent emails.  K&T Equip, LLC still has the Z-Reels introductory prices listed for both the Natural and Revolution reels on their website.  This should be taken advantage of if you're thinking about adding one of these unique "wheels" to your collection.
