I really could use a new reel broke my 25 yr old Penn last season.
Don’t have much luck winning stuff but you never know
Sorry man…
I plan on winning…lol
Thanks On the Water for this Awsome Opertuneity !!!
Never could afford one it would do something nice with stripers
Would love to win this high quality reel. I’m sure it would help fill my freezer 🙂
What is the new sealed reel that came out today approximately 300?
Take a look at Florida’s East Coast. New England style Surf fishing is catching on.
How much 50lb. Braid will the spool hold.
Just purchased 7″ pliers hope to use them soon??
Paul, I’ll borrow those….
Paul u have to catch one first
I would love to own one.
Hope I win too!! Cant wait for the weather to break and get back out on the water.
When is the right hand retrieve reel coming out
VAN STAAL TOLD ME THERE IS NO PLANS OR MARKET FOR IT. THAT SUCKS
Don I thought I read sometime this spring right hand retrieve would b available?
Winning this reel is the only way I could afford to own and appreciate the kind of excellence it represents. Here’s hoping I get to experience the best of spinning reels :>)
Awesome prize. Good luck to everyone!
I’d hang it on the wall in my living room when not in use, all Van Staal’s gear is like bad ass man art.
love to use this reel in Florida
I need a new surf casting reel and this one looks awesome!
Just bought a house. Will be a long time till funds come along for the fishing dept.restock, unless I win or can fake a catastrophic reel break down. I will have to window shop
Holy cow!! Another new reel . Now my “Old vsb will be worth even less even though it’s like brand new. Kinda like my stock investments.
my dream reel…..would love to win this
Great reel!
Great contest!
Thanks!!
IT’S MINE
Nice Reel ! Would love to win it. Good luck everyone
Never tried one, my Penn reels have been very reliable. I definitely would like to find out what all the hype is about.
I would be a great reel for the spring. Someone has to win
I’m pretty sure that current Van Staal reels were previously called Crack reels, which were even previously called Luxor reels, though I’m sure the models have changed significantly. I used both the Luxor and the Crack in the Long Island surf many years ago. They were great reels then and I’m sure great reels now.
I still have a Crack 300, definitely same shape as a VS, but it weighs a ton and the roller is frozen. Used to have an old Luxor too, I have no idea what happened to it.
EVERYONE STOP ENTERING….IM GOING TO WIN IT 🙂
What a beautiful reel. I want it so badly. Hope I win!
It will look good on my rod .thanks guys☺
I would love a new reel have the perfect rod for it.
I hope I win, it will be given to my grandson who has become an avid fisherman and loves making his own lures and tying flies. Also searching all over the area for undisclosed fishing spots. He is so committed. He is following in his Papa’s shoes,he calls me the wizard.
Tried a VS once, loved it. I haven’t been fishing much at all lately, but plan to get rid of the wreck in my back yard and get a boat that works this year and get back on the water. It would be nice to have something nicer than my old Penns to get out with!
Been wanting one if these reels for a while !
It’s a beautiful reel
I hope I win
See, I win!
