Beautiful setup and great with some ABU love. What do you use it for? Thanks I've always wanted to do an Abu build. There are a ton of parts for these reels. I've fished the rod but not the reel yet. I've used the rod to 1/8 oz jig heads and 4 inch yum swiming dingers. I'll end up using the rod and...

JDM Revo 3 Elite IB7 converted from Doyo dual brake to IVCB with blue parts on a JDM Fantasista Deez FDNC 70MMH (ML?) rod rated 3/32-1/2. The reel has dual aluminum side plates and a drag clicker. Spool and cc knob are from a Deez kit for Revo3. Handle and knobs are Ray's Studio. Engine plate and sc...

That Daiwa purple is a weird shade. Only Daiwa SLP color parts seem to match it. The purple on the Hyuga rods is a dead match though. I have my tat SV on a Hyuga 72H and it looks like it was made for it. Same with my SS SV105.

I learned something here. I never would have thought this could happen. I'll definitely be more mindful in the future.

Hey E73Bass. Where is the new Zillion CT. Did your source screw up and say CT instead of HD :lol: or is the reel coming out at a later date. Smoke and mirrors in Orlando. Meanwhile in Japan: http://www.daiwa.com/jp/fishing/item/reel/boat_rl/admira/index.html No mention of SV, Magforce Z or even Mag...

You know I didn't even think about how the much more compact SV system would make it possible to place a non-fixed rotor on a deep spool like in that coastal. I've been wondering about this for a few years. The ID of the spool is still dependent on the OD of the inductor. You would have to design i...

If you have different grips between casting and palming a baitcast reel then you have to change grip anyways so changing hands while changing grip is a non issue. You don't have to use a right hand baitcast reel if you are right handed. If you have enough fine motor skills in your left hand then you...

I wouldn't write off the Zillion CT yet. With the Tatula 100, Tatula 150 and 200 it makes sense that there would be a new Zillion CT and a Zillion HD. This is what I was getting at earlier in this thread. I guess that "new" Zillion HD got everybody distracted..... :lol: I'm skeptical. It doesn't ma...

How does that monster plam? Like an older Tatula without the mag dial rubbing on your finger? I could go for that. I want a "1516" spool reel to play around with those sized spools.

Too bad it has a fixed inductor. I would love to see a more distance orientated Magforce Z spool in it for bombing frogs and throwing big baits. I know the JDM Zillion HD has a fixed rotor. The Daiwa USA website does list Magforce Z though. So maybe it's using the Ryoga 1520 spool? http://www.daiwa...

Zillion CT and HD maybe? The CT will be probably be Tatula 100 based but I'm hoping for the Steez A platform to trickle down. The HD seems alright with the new style recessed mag dial side plate and the frame milling reminiscent of the old TD Zillion. Too bad it has a fixed inductor. I would love to...

A new Zillion is obvious. The question is will it be based off the Tatula 100 platform or the Morethan/Steez A?
