Spool Questions

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

In terms of capacity the steez 100ha spool hold more line than my ringa sss
The 1016 T3 spool is in the middle, but I am looking for a little shallower spool .

My thoughts were to get an IP Megabass spool 249. 00 in price and put it on the TD-Z.
But I had thought the same for the Steez 100HA and put it on an AGS 7'1" rod but that would defeat the purpose of the rod.
Im just looking for something that hold less line but enough line for the TDZ that won't break the bank. I am not sure what
to do with the steez at the moment but i've already greased the skids with the wife on an AGS rod for Christmas.

I use a 1016 in my steez for jerk baits and I throw everything from x rap 8's to vision 110's. If you want something more shallow then go with the sv105.

Thanks,

I tried the 1016 in the TDZ and was able to turn put the breaks all the way in the OFF.
Just to see, I took the IZE PE spool out of my fuego and tried to put it into the TDZ but it did not allow me to close the side plate, however the 1016 spool did go into the Fuego with no problems. So I guess that means the IZE PE long cast spool will not fit in the steez.

IP spool is made for a TD Zillion, so I don't think it's gonna fit a TDZ. And where you finding them for purchase?

I would get the SV105. I put one in my SV103XS, and couldn't be happier. Holds plenty of 40# braid.

Your going to think I'm crazy
But I got two PE long cast spools and 1 PE special
Just got a 1016 spool and I already had a steez sv105 spool for my 100sha.
I got the SV103 reel to compare platforms (SV103 vs. Steez with sv spool.)

I have a couple of the IS platforms and at the moment I'm spinning my wheels and getting frustrated with things not working out like they did in my mind...

To answer your question I searched and found them on japantackle.com
