NorCalFishinguru, I would believe the factory tune statement if there was a specific rod for a specific reel. Its just marketing.

I wouldn't say its a "factory tune" type of deal, but no reel fits so perfectly on a Zillion rod as a Zillion reel. The reel seat was designed with palming the reel in mind, and its place so that it is well balanced as well.

Same is true for the Daiwa Steez Rod and Reel combo.

    That is what I thought was the issue here, that maybe certain rods were balanced the best with their reel counterparts from a specific company. Daiwa reel-Daiwa rod; Shimano reel- Shimano rod; Abu reel- Abu rod.
