Hello, I have checked around online for a 704Z bail-less conversion kit and found one site that said they sold them but they are out of stock. Anyone know where they are available? Thank You Ken | ||

| I had to do some "homework" to find these kits....I bought the last 2 from Joe Mollica at Snug Harbor, and they were in OLD envelopes, so have been hanging around a while LOL. I heard Penn has them backordered, and I'll bet it is a marketing thing. Look hard for them and buy when you find them, they are now rare LOL.

| What are the advantages of the bailless conversion?? Heard about it before, but never really paid any attention. Must be something important if VSs come without bails  Thanks | ||

Also, less moving hardware to fail (see above LOL)....... Didn't take me long to get used to it....... Now, for live-lining bait, I suppose it may be a little troublesome, at least so i hear, but I don't use my spinners for that. That's when I break out the Avet

| Worth a try at ~$12/each I like it so far, it's like having a new reel (rather than one that always leaves you cringing waiting for the snap )Plus I noticed she casts a little better.......but maybe that's me knowing I can give it more of a whip without having the bail close LOLOL
