Re: Aldebaran 51HG ('15) vs. Curado 71HG MGL

I think you will find the Aldebaran to be great with what you intend to use it for. Expride 6'6 Medium is my go-to for OneTen/Jr jerkbaits and it's magical with the Aldebaran. Super lightweight combo.

Daiwa 36mm INTO 34mm spool spacers.

Trying to convert my IP to fit 34mm spool.
Are these still around anywhere?
Does anyone here fabricate them?
I've been looking for some for the longest.
Help a brother out! Thanks!

Re: 2021 daiwa blazon rod

JDM Tackle Heaven just stocked up with the Blazon C68L-BF! A bit more expensive on the "MSRP" side ($150-160 JPY/USD) vs Asia Portal Fishing though.

But I did order one!

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000

I use the two Roro spools - well actually four as options regarding inductor thickness. I really like them. Also use Amo/Momo, Rays, KTF and ZPI spools that are more or less bfs specific. Different experience regarding fixed inductor (roro, zpi) or moving inductor “sv style” (rays, ktf). Also one n...

Re: What is the smoothest stock Daiwa reel you've ever used?

I don't own a ton of super expensive Daiwas, but my Steez A is much more smooth than my Zillion SV (older one) and other Daiwa reels. I have not bought the new Zillion yet, torn between JDM vs US or maybe a new Alphas. Got the money ready from a yard sale today though!!! I vote US 21 Z for brass ge...

Re: Do you want Daiwa to keep on using the T-Wing on everything they release?

I haven't had experience with the TW guide yet. I'm curious to know, those of you who have used both the OGZ/TDZ reels and the newer Daiwas with TW, which line guide is typcally better? Which do you prefer?

Re: Zillion HLC... the neglected child

Have you considered an aftermarket spool such as one found on ebay “ FOR DAIWA TD-Z 100 / TD ZILLION 100 / PREMIUM SPOOL / SDS CUSTOM” - it is available in matching silver, has fixed inductor, weighs 7.8g with bearing and will transform your reel. Do you have any experience with these spools? Can y...
