Is there anyone out there that knows of a company that makes a bait-runner reel that can be used for "eyes". Every one that I have seen is the catalogs are twice the size of what I'm looking for. I have one that was made my Abu-Garcia about twelve years ago. I think it was only on the market for a couple of years. Mitchell came out with the FRE600, but that thing is huge. I'm looking for a smaller sized version with a spool capacity of 120 yrds. of 6 lb. test. Thank you in advance for any help in finding such a thing......kp

Keith..I have a bunch of Quantum QSS Baitsensors, but I think they've discontinued them. The only one I know of still making them is Shimano, nice reel but pricey.. http://fish.shimano.com/spinning/baitrunner/baitrunner.html
I've got a couple of Mitchell's new center-drags, and they work almost as well as a bait-runner, but their smallest model is pretty big! Good Luck in your search and let us know what you find..I'd be interested in one as well. Good Fishing, Sluggo (Chris)
