Shimano Antares HG used as BFS

I picked up an Antares today and I had planned on using it as a pitching/flipping reel for weighted plastics. I’ve been cycling out some old gear and buying new stuff. To make a long story short I put some 10lb fluoro on the Antares to try it out with weightless plastic and I was impressed. Impressed to the point I think I will use it alongside my T3 Air for BFS and buy another reel to use for pitching/flipping. What a great reel. Possibly among the best reels I’ve ever used. The smaller size of this latest model really sold me on it
