Czb bearings

Hope CZB bearings and reel perform like the high end reels. I do a lot wading and float trips. Accidentally submerge a reel in water and loose bearing oil and casting gets inconsistent. Shimano reels have been toughest reels I have found for wading

New ideas, new concepts. For the rest of us CZB means "concept zero bearings". Here is the 2017 ICAST article. Sure wish I was invited to attend one of these. :oops: :mrgreen:

Only time will tell, but for a Salt Water quality reel, US made, and about $200, it is sure worth a try.

It would seem that without bearings, you don't need to worry about the bearing oil washing out Caja. Completely corrosion proof, or so they claim, ............

If you already have one, let us know how you like it.

Would like to pair a 300 size reel with CZB and TFO big fish rods.
