Has anyone used this Daiwa spool before?

Featured Replies

Recently ordered this 34mm spool to try out. I believe it's the spool in the Zillion 10.0 reel.

Given the ~9g light weight, I am assuming it excels in lighter lures. Has anyone had any experience with this spool? With which reel? I am gonna try it with the new Zillion and a SS SV, maybe a SV103.

 

 

It is a nice spool, great in that 1/8 to 1/2 range.  The 1012 SV is very similar, but a bit more shallow so it'll hold less line which will keep the total weight of the spool down.  Beware of it in the SS SV.  The SS SV has weak magnets and the 1012 and 1016 SV spools have short inductors which can make for a wild spool in that reel.  On the up side, it will be better for distance but will need a little more thumb input.

Thanks for the input! If it's similar to 1012 SV, then it's exactly what I'm looking for. 

I actually don't mind the SS SV magnets. Once I changed the thick tall inductor on its original spool to a much thinner custom inductor, the original spool's casting distance was significantly improved. I put 10lb mono on it for casting 1/4 - 1/2 jerkbaits, and the performance is almost as good as MGL 3 spools.

It’s one of Daiwa’s better spools. It’s the same as the stock spool in the 16’ steez svtw. I have a few of them in various reels and like it alot more than even the boost spools. The 1012 is just a shallow version of it.
