Is the Daiwa Presso 1000SP worth it at roughly $285.00? I see that it is only 145g, wow!!

Any reel is only worth as much as you can afford!

Several on here have this reel..and we paid considerable more than that for it. Now is the time to buy with the dollar to yen being so good...that won't last forever. I have had mine for a little over a year.....caught a ton of fish with it. As smooth as they come and very low inertia. You may or may not be aware but the new Daiwa Airity and Shimano Vanquish will hit the stores anytime now. If your budget allows I would take a strong look at them.

Do you know a ballpark price on those two reels? Thank you!

What’s your take on the Zenon vs either the new Airity or Vanquish?

I ordered two zenons recently from fishingshop.kiwi but they were out of stock. That may work out for me as I’d willing to wait.

I got my Zenons at a great price....$215 a pop I think it was. Now they can be had for $265 and that is till a great deal. But it will no way compare to the new Airity or Vanquish. But those reels are $140 more. I would love to have both of them and may buy them...time will tell. I still have a friends Stella and Exist to do a review on....and I have to tell you playing around with both of them sure makes me drool...LOL.

Thanks!

I’m patient and will wait. I’ve been wanting a made in Japan reel to pair with Lunakia but was willing to go with the zenon.

cannot speak for the airity, but i own 3 2019 vanquish reels and a 2012 vanquish.
waiting to buy 2 of the 23 vanquish as soon as i see them on market, fantastic reels.
if your budget permits, they are well worth it.
