Should a Beginner Buy the 22 Shimano Aldebaran? Long Term BFS Reel Review

This review has been months in the making. I went from really not liking the reel to loving it. Spoiler alert - it might be the best reel under $500. I have to force myself not to grab it for almost every trip. I go over why I struggled with the reel at first, and why it's my favorite now. And I discuss one little nagging thing that keeps it from being perfect in my eyes.
