Re: Stradic FM 2nd Chance
Hagane means "steel" in Japanese - just a marketing term for metal in Shimano land, just like Ci4 /+ or Magnumlite for PA+30 polyamide when you see it stamped. The gears (main) is cold forged that's about it. To counter the Calcutta B has a forged aluminium frame, from waaaaaaaayyyyyy bac...

Re: Stradic FM 2nd Chance
As much as I love Daiwa (been fishing them mainly for the past like 8 years or so) they frequently make some questionable design choices in general. This becomes an off-topic post, because it's about MagForce/Z/SV - in baitcast, Daiwa's casting brake design is so brilliantly simple and effective in...

Re: Do You still Use Lures that You Bought, When You're a Kid?

Re: Best Spools for OG Zillions in 2024?
Good afternoon everyone!! I recently acquired an old Zillion Type R. The reel looked rough in the pictures but I figured it was just normal wear and tear on an older reel and i'm a sucker for the old TD-Z/Zillion platforms. Well I got the reel, and not sure what the heck happened to this thing, One...
