· #1 Posted October 28, 2017 Now that I have seen and read about USA made reel I thought of another non PRC reel Quote On other news a German company named Vosseler is making a new spinning reel. No idea how it will be but certainly something encouraging since the last time a spinning reel was made in Germany was in 1994. My money is on the germans 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They still holding up good but companies itself didn’t survive Japanese attack and risen white flags. Wouldn’t bet on Germans so quickly but that Vosseler looks interesting though. Is it for saltwater? 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

· #5 Posted October 28, 2017 I gave up speculating on computer renders. Comparisons should be made once boxes are on store shelves. I lost count of the amount of drool worthy reels that never came to market. 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From the Rob K daytime TV drama....to the all titanium Fortitude. Every spring and fall there is a new one. The voseller looks beautiful.

It serves no purpose other than continuing it's spherical aesthetic. The pretensioned bail wire design is unique to a few current designs and works without needing separate springs. However that render looks like it's not functional at all. Additionally it appears to be very narrow and slow retrieve. So that handle knob design means you'll be cranking from your elbow instead of forearm/ wrist. Angling it out wider would make for more comfort casting and retrieving for long durations. The raised drag knob design is a proven catcher of braid when closing the bail to begin the retrieve. But the picture is sure pretty Howz dat Discuss Is the season over already??? LOL Get me funding and an engineer..I'll design 9 reels. 3 offshore, 2 baitcasters and 4 spinners that would be unique, functional. Bulletproof. And beautiful 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The stem-body juncture is much too busy. Does the body pivot at the yoke on the bottom of the stem? If it does I have never seen such a feature. EDIT: It looks like the body does not pivot so the stem-body juncture IS DEFINITELY MUCH TOO BUSY. Is there a screw's head on top of the hexagonal reel seat? Is the foot tapped for the screw?

· #15 Posted November 12, 2017 Voesseler makes luxe fly reels, well beyond my price bracket. I have a DAM 5000 in the basement, "proudly made in West Germany," that I probably should put to use again. 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
