I’ve been so busy I can’t even remember what’s come in and what I’ve posted. That said, I’ll try and catch up/post in batches. Here’s some of the misc stuff that’s been delivered recently.
At this point in my reel collecting/hoarding/whatever, there are very few items I’m still chasing to put on the shelf/fish. Two of those items (one not pictured) have recently been acquired. After many years of searching…A NIB Daiwa Milly Club M Red/Gold has finally joined the stable. the reel came with a pair of OG corks and an additional 34mm spool that I quickly added a R+ inductor/spring mod to. It’s nice to close out that set, and of course…I couldn’t leave it alone. The extremely rare Club M knobs were added to it shortly after it was in my grubby little hands.
Next up is an extremely clean KTF ‘09 Alde that ended up needing a new set of gears. 8.1:1s were swapped into it. ☑️
Some 30mm goodness…Orange KTF Finesse spool.
Studio Composite RCSC CQC handle/matte CF knobs.
Some tuning station upgrades were added, as well. A couple sets of SLP Works Mats and Stainless trays to help keep me better organized during builds…
Limited and SP-C MB baits
Hamamatsu Fire set #2
Pop X
Type X King Cobra and Good Design Ltd (silver flash and gold flash)
Cyclones
Griffons
X-80 Mags/SW
XPod
Vibe X Ltd
Itö Shiner
Phat Lab Nekosogi Show color
Mud Bun Lovlies to complete the set
Fumi/23 Baits One Eye
Arsenale Wake…those fins though…
LC Wooden Sammy
Etc…
Thanks for looking, gents.

Oh yeah! Love looking through your mail calls! Some things people just dream of. For the ones in the know, we know. Those groups on FB have no clue! hahaha
Respect as usual brother!~

Straight UP🔥🔥🔥! Helluva nice stash of goodies fosho.
How is the performance of the KTF 09 Alde versus some modern BFS reels or in comparison to the other contemporary BFS reels of that era?
That Club M Red/Gold is just SICK. And the Club M pairing is just spectacular.
SALUTE!

@dragon1 effortless casting abilities. MOST KTF tunes are…very impressive. Their gear sets have been known to have some issues depending on ratios and mine was one of the problematic sets. 8.1s from BFS XG we’re the fix. Test-casting on dry land with 7-8lb sniper, reveals its capacity is more than on point, for what I’ll need from it.

Beautiful M-Club reel! How many of these were produced?
Thank you! 🙏🏼
Wish I could give you an official number, but what we do know is that they were made based on pre-order for Club M members back in 2001. One thing I can safely say is that they are extremely limited in production quantities. If I had to…I would guesstimate at around 100-150 units per color with the green being more popular/common.

I ended up finding a NIB M-Club as well and am very happy with its arrival!
