I like it. Five out of the six rods I have are spinning so I don't know the most about that kind of reel. Looks good to me

I can't tell you anything about that specific reel, but over the years there are only 3 sorts of reels that have lasted any amount of time for me - Shimano spinning and baitcasting, Abu-Garcia high profile baitcasters, and Daiwa baitcasters. I had a Daiwa baitcaster that still worked perfect even though all the body screws had stripped out of the chassis. I glued the body back on it (kind of like welding a leaky motor shut), and it worked perfect for another couple years until something fell apart inside. I buried that guy at sea. I would buy another Daiwa.

Its a very nice reel webbie.. you know I am a shimano dude.. but that is a nice reel!

Great reel webbie. I have 4 Team Diawa X models. Very similar to the Z model.

Use them on a spinnerbait rod, crankbait rod, carolina rig rod and one on a 7' MH wacky worm rod. All work great for the different applications.

yeah, I did some research on it and the ratings were were good.. And at 6.2 oz's you can't go wrong.. Wifey got kinda mad that I spend 349.99 on the reel though.

One must always remember to pay for the first digit of the price in cash, the rest goes on the bank card. See honey, I only spent $49.99 at Thorne Brothers.

hehe.. She saw it... The 200.00 that is.. She hasn't seen the 1,000. yet.. lol.. I did buy the reel. I decided, why not.... I've never had a nice rod / reel combo before so I decided to get one..

I ended up picking up the St. Croix Legend Tournament 7' MF "teaser" rod. I coupled it with a Team Daiwa-Z103H rod.

I also picked up a St. Croix Legend Tournament 7' MHM spinning rod coupled with a Daiwa Certate 2000 reel. I haven't had a chance to play with them yet so I can't write a review yet.. It did set me back about 1200.00 though Here are some pictures

[Guest]
