Its pretty unique in that regard. The longevity alone is impressive let alone the modifications. Is there any other reel with that type of record? [/quote] There are old reels still in use like the old green Curados for example. The closest one could be the original Alphas as they still get used an...

I've used mine for bottom contact with 20lb fluoro. No problems at all with the drag (carbontex). It seems I get more fish with 6.3:1 than a faster reel, probably because it forces me to slow down. That said, I use my td-z's for ikas, Senkos, squarebills and spinnerbaits. Don't get my wrong 7-10:1 ...

Some beautiful reals posted so far. I’m not one to post much but this thread was too tempting to pass up. Still tweaking with some before our season opens. - 50th anniversay silver and red parts, 7.1 gear set - Deps DR-100ZX - J-dream 5.3 body with silver parts , 7.9 gear set - crazy cranker with b...

Most sought after for what? Rarity? Performance? Selling price?

Just curious your thoughts in those categories you mentioned...

I don't have any of the newer ZPI spools and would love a Blue Emblem... I do have the following: 1 RCS 1016 1 TD-Z Ito Kanji 2 TD-Z Type R+ 2 TD-Z 105H 2 Steez 103 Red Dimpled (Type R+) 1 Steez 103 Black Dimpled (Type R+) 1 Megabass IS71 2 SV103 1 ZPI (older orange/red spool) Thoughts? Thanks and b...

I am still waiting on a redo of the TD-Z...maybe 2023 when the platform would be 25 years old! Some of the people on here might not have been born yet lol! Wouldn't that be something I know right? Add a 90mm swept aluminum or bonus carbon fiber handle, some OG corks (to copy the originals), longer ...

For the TD-Z, TD-X Air Metal, SV103, Steez platforms, what are the most sought after 34mm Daiwa spools as far as performance is concerned? Thanks and best wishes on the water.
