I’m a Shimano fan, 90% of my reels and rods are Shimano. But the new 2025 Daiwa saltiga draws my attention more than the 2025 Stella Sw. Shimano needs to step up their game.
I'm also a Shimano fan. But Daiwa reels look better, they look solid and luxurious. Meanwhile, Shimano reels have started to look like budget class. I have a vanquish 23 and a vanford 24, both are the same apart from the internal mechanism. But the appearance is nothing impressive at all.. I don't like the quality of Shimano lately! They always have defective bearings!
Am I the only one here who notices that Shimano reels have bowed down to Daiwa reels? Daiwa reels look really serious, high quality and not childish. Shimano reels look like toys, take a mid-range Shimano and a luxury Shimano reel and they actually look the same, apart from the mechanism.
Is there a way for Retailers to connect with Shimano Japan to discuss business? I cannot travel 24 hours one way just to have a chat. How can I connect?
At 3:30 when he says that the infinity guide system keeps the line from hitting the rod which causes abrasion. This is NOT true. No traditional rod is abrasive enough to damage your line. It was done to minimize rod & guide contact which creates drag and reduces casting fluidity & distance.
That’s not the old model of Ocea plugger limited rod, the X guides are different from the 2021 model, I owned a 21 model Ocea limited 83mh rod. That must be the new 2025 model.
every reel that hits the 100 euro price tag ,should have a one piece handle ....daiwa exceler does while nasci ,ultegra dont...c'mon shimano its 2025...you can do better than that....
