Which is smaller in profile?

Featured Replies

I am looking at getting a new frog reel, and torn between the Daiwa Zillion with the high speed gear ratio or the Daiwa Advantage Super Tuned, and what I would like to know is which one is smaller in overall size or in other words which one is easiest to palm.  I will be getting it in left hand as well.

We do not have any local dealers here that have either of these so I am relying on you guys.

Thanks guys.

The Zillion is smaller.

Both are pretty small and easy to palm... unless you have very small hands, I don't think either of them will present a challenge.

I got the highspeed Zillion earlier this year for frogs, buzzbaits, topwater plugs and jerkbaits and I love it so far. Easy to palm, light weight and powerful. It is the best workhorse reel I have ever used. I would highly recommend it.

Thanks FishTank,

I love my Daiwa Alpha Type-F's (6) and my Sol's (2) however they are both slow speed 5:8 gear ratio's which I feel is way to slow for slop fishing.  I wish Daiwa would come out with a Japanese Alpha with a 7:1 gear ratio ... I would be all over that like stink on ... well you know.

Take care all,

Steve
