OG zillion Spools and behavior
IP79 .485
TDZ 100M .545
Zillion PE LongCast .505
I love the PE long cast but line capacity may be an issue for you. It hasn’t been for me. I was surprised at how little the IP79 spool weighs

Re: OG zillion Spools and behavior
The IP 79 has the same spool as the J Dream, It is going to cast lighter weights than the standard zillion spool.

I’m trying to cast a weightless fluke 20# test on my power versatile rod and I can with ease. I was just seeing how far it would go down to.spencerinstl wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 1:19 pmThe IP 79 has the same spool as the J Dream, It is going to cast lighter weights than the standard zillion spool.

I’m using the IP79 but do you feel that it’s the exact same reel as the JDREAM in the same gear ratio less cosmetics?
I know where I can get a JDream spool but I got an extra IP79 spool for $70 bucks. So I think that was a good deal

Of note the 100m spool is great in this platform too
Someone told me that but I’ve been testing and just ironing out the results

I’ve been wanting to try a 100m but I’m down to only one Zillion that I actually use, a 100P Crazy Cranker for deep crankinggoldrod wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 4:17 pmThanks for the clarificationJnkoepp wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 4:13 pmMechanically, IPs and Dreams are 100% the samegoldrod wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 2:51 pmI’m trying to cast a weightless fluke 20# test on my power versatile rod and I can with ease.

Re: OG zillion Spools and behavior
The Zillion HLC spool is another good one in that reel. It launches frogs.

I've never fished either, but I thought the consensus was that the magnets on the IP were different, stronger I think.Jnkoepp wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 4:13 pmMechanically, IPs and Dreams are 100% the samegoldrod wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 2:51 pmI’m trying to cast a weightless fluke 20# test on my power versatile rod and I can with ease.
