I got my Zillion 9.1:1 in yesterday from TackleTrap. Just fooling with it, it's not near as smooth as any of my other zillions, zillion variants, or even Tatula type r's. I think after a trip or two in the boat it will break in some, but so far Im not too impressed.

Will it outcast the old Zillions is an important question. Apparently the drag is stronger on the new one, and ergos are subjective.

How are the ergos subjective, when you can't find ONE Daiwa user who prefers them?? The ergos was/is the biggest problem with the reel. The Zillion/ TD-Z platform is possibly the most comfortable platform ever sold by any company.

Because you speak for EVERYBODY? And because everybody palms every reel exactly like YOU and your fishing buddies right? Lol
