The line lay picture is not an actual picture. You can see in this video how the line lay is...same style as any reel.y2k88 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 11:28 pmMRRP 85400 91900 jpy

It looks like the spool moves much more slowly than normal spinners however.HobeyBaker wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 5:45 amThe line lay picture is not an actual picture. You can see in this video how the line lay is...same style as any reel.y2k88 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 11:28 pmMRRP 85400 91900 jpy

You can see in this one.
The worm gear is higher now, with another reduction gear

Re: Stella 22
does anyone know of anywhere the old stella is on sale?
Re: Stella 22
honestly I don't think there will be a sale on these reels. I saw more Daiwa reels on sale in the past but that was all pre-pandemic memories now. I just hope the price will stay the same at least for a year or 2 rather than going upFirstoutfisher wrote: ↑Wed Feb 02, 2022 9:33 amdoes anyone know of anywhere the old stella is on sale?

Re: Stella 22
I don’t see a sale happening, as not many places even have what is now the old stock in stock. Reels on tackle warehouse have been listed as “no back order” for a while. Which to me indicates that the big brands don’t plan on a discount on outgoing models. I personally believe Daiwa came out with the Luvias Airity to use as many of the LT Exist frames as possible before the new model. Could be a similar thing with Shimano as the Vanquish uses a similar frame if I’m not mistaken.Firstoutfisher wrote: ↑Wed Feb 02, 2022 9:33 amdoes anyone know of anywhere the old stella is on sale?

Re: Stella 22
My greatest concern is the oscillation. The 2002 Stella 20 years ago had this kind of super slow oscillation, and it was not a great feature. Although it really makes the casts longer, during a fight, the line can dig itself between the parallel loops. That’s why the X wrap came in 2006. I don’t understand why would it be different now with thinner and slicker lines, and maybe even more parallel loops?!

Curious on this well; and this feature will surely trickle down through the line-up.Pilu72 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 06, 2022 1:31 amMy greatest concern is the oscillation.

Re: Stella 22
I don't know if Shimano is trying their best to release ugly reels, but this thing looks like a $250 reel, not a $750 one. This and the new Aldebaran are
