My HX Raptor got finished today, but Harry and Sarkis, left on a trip. Maybe they'll ship on Monday. Hope they remembered the power handle.

Current Conditions

"Rep Bags A Three

Ben Frazier fished aboard Mike Keating’s Spirit of Adventure with the owner on a ten-day trip, the Big Jim Charter, and got his first 300-pound tuna with a new Seeker 2 x 4 rod and an Avet HX Raptor reel. Ben reps for both companies, and after the boat docked at fast-disappearing H&M Landing (it’s under demolition and reconstruction) November 24, he got his monster weighed in at 300.1 pounds."

The Excel just finished a 10-day and had 3 over 300#, best was 343#. Mostly caught on Avet's, but all were 50W.

What a great catch - I am assuming he has a power handle on that but can anyone confirm?
