TD ito Type R spool in a STEEZ A TW?

Post by zrocketman » Mon Feb 13, 2023 12:56 pm

Got a STEEZ A TW on a good price off eBay and had my ito spool lying around. It seems like the reel fits.

Anyone have experience with this combo? If not I’ll be happy to report back.

Absolutely, it'll work just fine and cast lighter baits better, although that's a Type R spool so it doesn't really like slow pitching or lures that tend to have air resistance, as much as it performs superbly for long bomb casts with aerodynamic lures.

Personally, the Zillion SV TW (Tat framed Zillion) factory spool performed exceptionally in the Steez A for me.

Good luck.
