#1862, "RE: Daiwa Alphas" In response to In response to 3 Sat May-07-05 09:35 AM by E-man
Hey guys,
Thanks for all your feedback. Wood the article on tackle tour was very interesting. TM I saw the Pixy but was leaning towards the Alphas due the larger line capacity. I already have couple of finesse baitcasters so I wanted something with more capacity.
Mag, regarding the parts availability for the import reels. It's true that it maybe harder to get parts/service for these type of reels but it's a trade off. The quality of the Japanese only imports are far more better than the U.S. counterparts. I know you're a Shimano fan, have you tried the Scorpion 1000? It's a great little reel! It's basically a Curado 100 but it already comes with a wiffle spool. Check out the pic.
