http://ontariofishingcommunity.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=58643 I believe they were available for purchase at the Chicago Musky Show Shimano Tranx reel at Chicago Show Here's some info from Shimano re: the Tranx introduction and events at the Chicago Muskie Show... New Shimano Tranx reels at Chicago Muskie Show – Muskie anglers will get their first look – and an opportunity to cast and retrieve – Shimano’s new ‘game-changing’ Tranx casting reels at this weekend’s 17th Annual Chicago Muskie Show. It all takes place Jan. 13-15 at Harper College in Palatine, Ill., just off I-90 near O’Hare Airport (chicagomuskieshow.com). ‘Hunt for Big Fish’ angler Larry Dahlberg will host a ‘Bucktail Burning’ contest on Friday at 5:30 where anglers can see how the new Tranx reels handle those super-big Musky Mayhem Double Cowgirl lures. Plus the Shimano and G.Loomis sales crew will have some cool ‘schwag’ available – limited edition Tranx reels covers and G.Loomis ‘Skeleton Fish’ t-shirts for qualified purchases. Shimano’s Tranx reels are designed to fish big lures for big fish – either burning them fast or working them slow with either the ‘speed to burn’ TRX500HG with a 6.6:1 gear ratio or the ‘power to pull’ TRX500PG with a 4.6:1 gear ratio. Both reels combine Shimano’s X-Ship and HEG technology to provide massive cranking power with a smooth, effortless retrieve. A limited number will be available at the show from selected exhibiting dealers. The Tranx reels retail for $499.99. Shimano company and area reps and pro staff will be on hand to answer all your questoins about TRANX.

Also use this setup on my boat about 2 years now,just different size of downspout pipes (3x3) Works great!

You got that right

You got that wrong they were only the first company that you noticed. You will find devices that used that same technology before.

Hehe, that's funny that you think that Apple is the master mind of all inventions This was a favorite phrase of Jobs: "Good artists copy; great artists steal"

Awesome Great pictures.

Awesome for sure!

Finally some voice of reason - good on you There is lots of dreamers in other responses (with good intentions) but we need to be real and reasonable. the technology is simply not there and follow advice that suggest you to save no matter how much it costs is crazy.

Both McGuinty brothers are same but count Ignatieff is in his own legue

Time to do some major "recreational welding" today or we will give it away and pay them to take it .... http://toronto.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20110124/ontario-pays-to-rid-power-110124/20110124/?hub=TorontoNewHome

It will depend on water temperature, lake or river?

Very nice ! Can't wait to see my family in Europe this fall and get some gators as well

You clearly didn't read Odyssey specs., warranty and lifetime expectancy

The ultimate battery if you can afford it would be probably Odyssey: http://www.odysseybattery.com/marinespecs.html
