No one is harder on tackle than Ralph Delph, Key West fishing guide legend, and his two sons, Rob and Mike. Only one reel meets their expectations consistently, reliably, time after time: Daiwa Black Gold (BG). ‘‘As hard as we fish—even with routine maintenance—it’s amazing any reel can hold up,’’ Delph says, ‘‘But we have some BG’s that are over 18 years old and still going strong. You just can’t expect more from a reel.’’ Reel features: - Strong metal construction—rigid metal frame will not flex under heavy loads so drive train stays in perfect alignment
- Rugged, precision gearing and stainless steel mainshaft
- Three stainless steel ball bearings
- High performance drag with combinations of Teflon®, Nomex®, leather and stainless steel washers
- Corrosion-proof hard anodized finish
- Silent left/right hand retrieve
- Folding handle for easy storage and transport
- Comfortable wooden grip
