New reel out? Amundson Trend Flow 5

[Hot-Streak]

I was looking at these when I saw them in a flyer. $250 regular price, stamped aluminum and same 7 layer carbon drag from the tmx 5.

Anyone fish with these yet? Considering buying a pair to match with my TMX 5.

Haven’t had a fish on mine yet but it feels nice. Saw a discount code on instagram for harbour chandler that I wish I would have seen before I bought them.

I'm interested in a pair as well. I couldn't find the HC discount code.

It was “fishingwithmati” I think it was for anything online.

Just got one for my son who is left handed, my buddy who does reel repairs out of Comox converted it for me, said it has same internal parts as the TMX 5.

Ordered a couple today. Thanks for the code!

"die cast and powder coating"... sounds like crap to me

 

[Hot-Streak]

I've been doing a bit of reading about cast aluminum reels vs machined and the cost/value/benefit/cons

"Machined = Lightweight, better corrosion resistance due to harder anodization process, stronger (usually density is consistent throughout and mostly aircraft barstock aluminum quality), pricier.

Cast = Heavier, more brittle, cheaper (can break if dropped more easily)

If longevity is your key so with machined"

I still think at $250 they are a compelling option for entry reels.

Been using mine for a bit now. Love it, feels just like my tmx5

It is supposed to be using the same drag as the TMX5

have one it is fantastic!! See how it does over the long term but great real for the price. No complaints!!

They're great, I got a pair for Father's Day and have probably played two hundred fish on them. Nice drag, no problems and a big upgrade from Daiwa m-ones.

I just bought 1 and they sent me a discount code number. Feel free to use it. It says send to friend. It may only work 1 time but I did not use it. If you try and it does not work let me know and I will delete this notice
