There is something awesome about landing a trophy fish knowing that you controlled the entire presentation using a fake bait
The main ball bearing is sealed (red arrow) and sits inside a metal sleeve (blue arrow), and the anti-reverse clutch (yellow arrow) is mounted behind it so that it's protected from overloading by that main bearing on one side and the smaller ball bearing of the pinion at the other side (green arrow)
I was definitely hooked, so to speak
This, however, comes at a price as booklets bound this way cant be laid flat on a surface
Bring your dominant hand underneath your other hand to make a large loop in the net
