Steez A vs zillion type R

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.

The IP Honeycomb spool fits the OG zillion as well. I think there is a misnomer about that spool that it is designed for finesse fishing. (although I am sure it handles light duties well). It's capacity rating is 70 meters of 14# line, at 10 grams.

I'm not in the OG Zillion club yet, but will own a MB IP at some point. I do have a Steez A and I have used the stock spool, STZ LTD SV, IS BFS, and IS Honeycomb spool in it, all with amazing results. (side plate bearing swaps to maximize spool potential)
