Alvey reels

Anyone use 'em?
They're Australian and hold the world-record for longest casts. Thinking about getting one, but I dunno. Kind of an odd design. Looks like a fly reel, casts like a spinning reel, retrieves like a conventional reel. Like I said, odd.

...I think I saw the reel you described on a site. It casts and the line does come off like that of a spinning reel, then you turn the reel back into place to reel, then looks like a dang flyreel!
...it is kind odd design, but hey, the first guns, if want to call them :fire-poles that, were odd to...[:D]
