Someone please tell me the story on the different colors of the Daiwa boxes, Is it year model, country of origin or grade of reel? This old dummy needs to know.

And I bet I am not catching any more fish but dog gone I am having fun. Went from hating bait casters to cant live without em had to double up

Well it may not cast 2 miles but I like Kastking Fortis, I use 30, 40 and 50LB depending on what reel I spool it on. Very cheap and no problems as of yet. I tried 20 LB Spider but it was either too small or I am not good enough to use it. Backlashed all the time

go very early in the morning [ before six ] or late in the pm after 8 Heck, I don't care for this hot weather either Heck, I don't care for this hot weather either

I have nothing good to say , so I want say anything

My first Daiwa Tatula SV TW 6.3 I paid $165.00 for the Curado 70 was $149.00 Both are good reels I see very little difference in how far they cast. The Daiwa may cast a yard or 2 farther. The Tatula holds much more line and almost backlash free. Both are smooth operating. I bought another Tatula SV TW in 8 .1 off ebay for $134.95 with free shipping. If the 70 had of been on sale I would have bought it. You will not be disappointed with either reel The 70 fits in your palm better American had the Tatula CT 100XS for $79.99 but have sold out. I bought 2 of them. They are good reels and about the same size as the Curado 70 I think they can be had for $90 or so

Daiwa Tatula SV TW 103XS 8.1:1 $i35.00 shipped on ebay I have a pair of them smooth reels I also have 70 also a nice reel

Welcome aboard , and there is plenty of water chucked with LMB in central VA Briery. Bugs Island , Sandy river, Connor Lake and a hoist of others in 75 mile radius of you.

an 8 inch flat wretched file will fill the bill dang I put in flat b a st ard file

It has been a problem in general since the 70s But it is much worse now in my opinion.

Give them the water for a few days. No big deal. And I work 5 and a half days a week! It just boils down to the type of guy you are in general

Ditto

I here all about distance, BUT no one ever states how far in yards!! About 40 yards is as far as I can cast a 5/8 oz lure. I have Daiwa Tutalas Shamino Curados KVD Quantums and kastkings the Tutala may cast a yard or 2 more but is as smooth as silk all are new this year Don't waste your money, there is no magic reel as far as distance

Like it says , David in Virginia

Sargent York or Jeremiah Johnson

I just bought this rod for flipping and pitching , will it work well for frogs? 1/4-2 oz med heavy fast action fr765 flipping stick

Well this is what I have learned; about 25 % of guys here buy 95% of the reels, rods and tackle, the other 75% catch all the fish

I have 2 of these in 8 to 1 and like them I got mine on sale for $79.95 from American but they are sold out, here is one for under 100.00 with free shipping http://www.ebay.com/itm/Daiwa-Tatula-CT-100H-6-3-1-Right-Hand-Baitcast-Fishing-Reel-TACT100H-/272473972573?epid=1161168946&hash=item3f70b6df5d:g:M9YAAOSwnHZYREni

yes , I read it, I only asked a simple question.

just wondering, do yawl thumb the real any?

I use braid an all my BCs but one and mono on it and my spinning reels I don't use leaders But I am a newbie to bait casters so take it for what it is worth

I am having no troible just resize your pics

you want go wrong with a Tatula or a Curado , either or

I WOULD TRUELY like to see a right handed guy reeling in a 8 lb BASS WITH HIS LEFT HAND Look out when he breaks water I have fished that was so long with spin casters I am much better with the left hand setting the hook
