Re: New Zillion Rods

Was looking at the specs on these today because I found the glass composite ones intriguing and noticed they have alconite guide train? Really??? $300+ rod series with alconite guides? thats sad. I remember the rebellions could be had for $150 and even they had SS/SIC guides https://www.daiwa.com/u...

Re: New pixy

How about another Tatula. The new BF 70 is coming. That makes 12 Tatulas listed on Daiwa's web sight. This is based on the Alphas Air TW, not the tatula 70/80 frame. The new Tatula BF 70 is already available on Tackle Warehouse. It has a BFS spool. Gotcha. The overseas market already has the Salama...

Re: New Zillion Rods

Btw this new zillion rods might be cool and stuff but don't see much that separates them from new tatula elite/ags rods. What's wrong with the new zillion rods? Because they don't slap on what separates this from the new tatula elite/ags rods in the descriptions, that makes it there's no separation...

Re: New Zillion Rods

It seems a lot of companies are hitting an innovation wall with blank material. NRX made a splash 10yrs ago only to add a "+" 10yrs later with little to no improvement to their blanks. Daiwa might be facing similar issues.

Re: 2024 Metanium DC

I'm always confused when people say that a reel isn't holding enough line. I get it with big line and big bait but what is being used for 3/8-1/2oz that you all are able to unspool the entire reel? I feel like I'm doing something wrong because I'm never even close. TEACH ME!!! :lol: I have a Daiwa ...

Re: All new steez sv tw

Maybe I am over saturated with cheap Aliexpress carbon handles but I now associate them with cheap and have an appreciation for a nice forged alloy handle. But if you want carbon fiber, 95mm and Zillion HD like knobs then for $11 this can be yours. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mqU6n0Q https://i.ibb.co...
