Does anyone out there own a Stradic FI reel? I'm thinking on buying one.

I went down to Bass Pro and bought one and am very excited to use. ( A big kid with a new toy)

Thanks

Denis: There are a number of differences between the old and new Stradic, but the most significant is the spool. It has a beveled edge that is supposed to reduce line twist and have less friction so you have longer casts.

It also has a larger padded handle
