Introduction: Ever since the suite of TD-Ito reels made their debut back in 2003, the bass fishing enthusiast crowd has waited in eager anticipation each and every year for an encore. And encores there have been. In the years that followed, the collaboration that is Daiwa Japan and Megabass brought us creations such as the Alphas Ito-Ai, Ito Monoblock, Bespoke, Zonda, RC 256, IS71, IS73, IS79, and more. Some of these reels have been featured here in their very own reviews, many more have not. To be honest, it's gotten a little out of hand.

Oh My Oh My.....Superb combo you have there.....!!!
One of my friends is using his Lin10 for fishing mangroves at all the time and I thought it was not meant for saltwater. correct me if I am wrong. Anyway he told me he has changed to Boca Bearings so that mangroves will be perfect fine and I was wondering how true that is???
Although, 5.4 gears would have been a better choice for chucking big baits. The Ryoga 1016 platform is a miniature tank and the black out treatment on this reel is just simply awesome. Do need to swap the thumbar and it's perfect.
