I've slowly been dipping my toe in the BFS pool, and this is my latest addition. I've only had it out twice since I got it, but it has been great. I haven't stressed it yet, but it did fine with a 2lb smallie. I love the drag clicker - nice and loud. All in all, the Gravity BFS feels as good as some of my more expensive Daiwas. It definitely casts 1/8oz jigs a hell of a lot better.
Great bfs reel!
When the line rubs on the guide frays my line. Today was my first day using it and overall it was a good reel until I realized what was happening to my line, $150 I would have thought I would have had a more solid reel, will not be buying from this company again.
Hi Nolan, Thank you for leaving us a review. We might have a solution in regards to your issue. If you can, take a Q-Tip and put it in the guide line insert, if that Q-tip head frays then its the insert and we will be happy to repair that reel part, if it does not then you should do the same with the rod guides on the rod you are using. Sometimes there may be a separated guide or a broken guide which could be the culprit. Please reach out to us by email at info@arkrods.com. Thanks, Team ARK
I’m new to bfs and this was my first ever bfs reel. To use just one word, unbelievable. It still blows my mind how easy it is to just zing a 1/16 or 1/8oz lure with such ease. I’m thoroughly impressed and am forsure going to be staying with Ark for more reels and rods in the future
My favorite BFS reel, it cast great and also has great line capacity for a bfs reel. Go get yourself a ark gravity bfs reel!!
