Re: Spinning reel question

Ususally the Shimano 2000 is a Compact model so it is on a 1000 body, so it will have a smaller foot, the 3000 foot will probably be the same as a 2500 because the 3000s are usually a compact model also. I am not so sure on the Daiwa 2500 vs Shimano 2500/3000 foot.

Daiwa Theory

Has anyone used the new Daiwa Theory, it virtually the same as a Luvias minus 1BB. It looks really good with the raw Zaion finish.

Re: One TOTALLY STOCK reel to rule them all

T3's and the Z series (eg. Z2020) reels are amazing and you can sometimes get them cheap, they cast excellent and have one of if not the best mag braking systems ever.
