Firstly, I am not sponsored by LEWS, as much as I would love to be..... Im a reluctant JDM man myself. I do try and buy as much made in the USA gear as possible, not always easy. These new reels from LEWS are bloody fantastic value for money. Their mid level stuff is very good, the pro gear is as good as any. Welcome back Lews, its been a long time coming. I recommend them Please watch my videos.
