Just picked one of these up! It's a lot of reel for the money ... The new design to hide all of the screws makes the reel look cutting edge but it requires taking the rotor off to get to all of the screws.
One thing to note is that Shimano will never have anything within Daiwas budget friendly zone. That could compete on this level, I’m a heavy Daiwa and Shimano user. So I love them both but in terms of price point and versatility, Daiwa takes the win by far.
Could you fit 150yd of 10# braid? Seems like you could based on the numbers on the box... Question is "Is Diawa's box accurate with respect to how much line this spool can hold?"

What's with the extra washers "shims"?

Great vid! Do you know if there is a big difference between this new version, and the last generation gold/gray version?
I don’t believe that one has the high gear ratio.
Good video I just got one going try it out tomorrow
New model looking good.
Is it better than the Daiwa 23 Legalis LT S XH ?
What kind of line are you using on this reel? As well with the pounds i am learning as I go newbie here lol
6 lb Berkley Trilene XL
