New Daiwa reel?

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

New Daiwa reel?

Post by evilcatfish » Wed Jun 24, 2020 9:09 am

Not sure if anybody else saw this, but it looks like a product unveil is coming. Personally hoping for something Japanese made, perhaps a smaller Z?!?!?

May not even be a reel and if there is it will be some sort of a Tatula. Still hoping for a Zillion version of the Morethan PE.

Probably another Tat variant. *yawn*. Daiwa hasnt been impressive since the Tatula came into the game. Kinda killed them to me anyways.

I was just reading the review of the new metanium. They were gushing at the Magnesium frame and the feel. It looks somewhat similar to a TD-Z.

I miss classic Daiwa :cry:

Same reel featuring Magseal V2, and a slight colour pallet change?

You jest, but the way things are going now..... :doh:
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

Could you just imagine rocking that out in a tournament... You'd be feared far and wide on the water.

A true Z1016 would be the first good thing to happen in 2020. Fingers crossed.
