Daiwa Black Gold [BG] Heavy Action Spinning Reel

Two Generations of Delph Rely On Daiwa BG. ‘Nuff Said? No one is harder on tackle—no one expects more from it than Key West guiding legend Ralph Delph and his sons Rob and Mike. And only one reel meets their expectations consistently, reliably, time after time—Daiwa BG. As Ralph puts it, “As hard as we fish, even with routine maintenance, it’s amazing any reel can hold up to it. But we have some BG’s that are over 16 years old and still going strong. You just can’t expect more from a reel.”
