The millionaire CT SV basically is the smoothest reel I ever used,  [stuff deleted]

 

Smoother than the new Steez 22 CT SV?  That would be pretty impressive.

Thanks.  Good to know.  I may not go completely BFS on this real but having the option would be nice. I might also look into a longer handle. I think I read that it is 80mm. We'll see what my Christmas Bonus is this year and I will decide if I want to pull the trigger. 

 

 

A longer handle is a option if you want more torque.

I never used the Steez 22 CT SV.

I pretty sure I will be ordering Millionaire CT SV. So a few more questions...What rod do you have it on? What line? And what do you use it for?

I use it in a custom fiberglass trout rod, with 6lb braided line.

I have one mounted on a 6'10" Legend Glass running 10lb Samurai Fluoro to throw smaller moving baits. It's just a dream and fun to fish with, it actually puts a smile on my face. 

I comment to my Wife all the time that my equipment is for me and my enjoyment only, no one has any idea when I'm out just how cool my gear is. They don't know how awesome the Evergreen Rod I'm using performs or how well the souped up Metanium Shallow throws baits with amazing ease and accuracy. BUT, while using my Millionaire and Legend Glass the other day my Bud says, "that has to be the coolest looking setup I've ever seen, Old School with the best modern amenities". Helped that I was crushing them on a 1/4oz Lipless over grass. Brian.

I know that feeling.  Each rod and reel I have sort has its own personality too me. I enjoy them each in their own way.  

 

As far as the rod goes, I have 7'2'' M Legend Glass and really enjoy it as well but it might be too heavy for what I want to throw.  I'm thinking more of a ML that can do around 1/8 - 3/16oz lures, maybe up to 1/2 but totally necessary.

How do you like the 7'2" M for square bills? I've been thinking about picking one up.

It's great. I use either a Shimano Bantam or 2012 Antares on it. It works great for most crankbaits that go down to about 12 feet. Deeper diving baits can be a chore if you use it all day but it's really not bad.  For deeper baits I been using the St. Croix 7'4'' MH Mod Legend Tournament.

Thanks, I'm pretty familiar with glass rods but I haven't so much as handled any of the Legend glass rods. I want one though. ?
