Hi! Im looking for more information about these reels in my collection that I feel I dont know too much. Maybe someone here knows... Evergreen - Opus1: Im curious about who actually engineered and made it for Evergreen. Also, any idea of qtys produced? TD-Z A.o.i: I wish to know more about what A.o....

Hi! Opening this thread to talk about rumours or info about new JDM reels that could be presented in the next weeks or fishing shows.
Heard about new Antares MD and even Conquest MD i.e.
Anything else?
Thanks!

I have the feeling that the IP and TD Zillion reels are at the bottom of the depreciation curve before they start to climb in value as collectibles. Especially the IP, J Dream, Limited, Deps ect. They are getting cut loose to fund purchases of the new zillion now that there is a worthy successor. S...

Hi! Would you help me choosing the next target for the collection? As you see I prefer the "old" ones and always lefty so BAPE Zillion and Millionaire Black Sheep are off the list. I know there is no Monoblock but its been impossible to find in perfect condition (and price). Daiwa TD-Itö 103HL Daiwa...

Hi! The awaiting is drivin me nuts! No news or even rumors about new Stella or Exist? What about Z2020 or Ryoga for example? Should be improved with SVBoost and Hyperdrive! Hang in there. Soon. Hopefully at the Japan shows coming up in Feburary? Or sooner? I’m referring to here. But that’s all I ca...

Stella...10, 14, 18, 22?

Spool shaft length is the same as the GIGAS of the TD-Z. My opinion is that the spool and/or the inductor is not centered

I have 4 TD-Z platform reels and the issue is the same with this spool

Nope, I mean is not possible to set the dial above 5 or 6, I feel Im going to break the mag dial if I do that. And yes, also the friction feeling is high in the retrieve.

This is how the spool look from above. As you can see it seems to be slightly displaced to the left. What I cant understand is why I cant set the magnet above 5 o 6 because it turns really hard.

Free-spool isnt a good indicator of a spool's performance, especially given that your spool has a fixed inductor. I know and I dont care about the free spool time. The thing that worries me is that when the mag dial is set above 2-3 the reel retrieve feels like if the tension knob was too tight! Al...

Hi! Same "problem" with a TD-Itö. I dont care about the free spool time because I have used some other ZPI Mg spool but...what is the harsh retrieve feel when the brake is set above 5?

Got one. Best jig rod ever in my opinion. Awesome lightness and sensitivity. I can compare with almost every MB and Evergreen.

Hi Tokugawa! I made the same thing but drillin very tiny holes with my dremmel and using black kevlar for the lacing, its quite subtle...hard work!
