If you have a Daiwa Sol post a pic, especially with upgrades.
Here is mine.

Looks awesome. That spool does so well in that reel. Which drag star is that, SLP?

That is a PX-R star. The reel was converted with the kit from Tackle Trap to make it compatible with clicking drag stars.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

This is a timely thread as I am looking for a orange reel to go on a BFS rod with a royal blue blank. I was looking at an Amber Orange Pixy, but man, some of those Sols are gorgeous looking. Am I right in thinking that they are just an orange, USDM version of the Alphas 103?

The sol with the sv105 spool really humbled my pixys.

Ok, I am leaning more and more towards getting on the Sol-train!

Does anyone make a blue colored finesse spool for the Alphas platform?
