ATC "Marfix"

[stickbom!]

Spotted a few Marfix lookalikes at Changi Pro Tackle last evening... was told the reels cost about $300. ATC fans and curious souls go check it out. The reels even have that extra tension botton on the left side plate!

Hi Lim, I haven't used one before and don't think I ever will. I'm not too fond of overhead reels but hopefully who has used the ATC will post his report here soon.

last nite i finally got the chance to feel the ATC jig hunter 20 series personally.. not a bad looking reel afterall.. only thing funny is the preset drag setting knobs.. when i was trying out the preset drag knob with the drag lever on FREE position.. the drag lever somehow MOVE together with the preset drag knob... have u noticed this? also the free spool isn't that good though.. but overall for that price... not a bad deal at all..

David, it might be a case of poor fitting if the lever is moving when the preset is being turned. I'm pretty sure ATC can work out the little bugs if they wanted. Totally agree that $300 is pretty decent for a reel so "metallic"!

mikey... metallic huh? the 20 size is somewhere between 665 narrow version if i m not wrong.... wonder how's the 10 & 30 size..
