[QUOTE="Iglow, post: 5648024, member: 22496"] How many have converted a reel to bailess? Back in the day Cardinals and Mitchells were good for converting. I converted a little mitchell avocet to bailess and love it. On the off side I weight the parts and put an equal amount of #8 lead shot in the empty area and covered/mixed it with clear silicone to keep the balance right. Now no more flipping bails,broke springs or none of that. Somebody told me it prevents line twist but I never noticed it before. [/QUOTE]
