    Default JDM Reel Thread #2


    Let’s start this off with some pictures of my new spool for the 19 Daiwa Ballistic FW LT 1000S-P. I really like this reel, have two of them and of course both will have braid on them as I prefer it to monofilament or fluorocarbon. The extra red spool will get strung up with the Sunline Night Blue Ester in 3lb test. I like this line for bank fishing the creeks when the water is super clear. Paired with the new Majorcraft Finetail 6.3UL it makes for a fun afternoon fishing trip.

    ?I believe the specs said this spool will also fit the 2020 Luvias 2000 which I also have, and I think Randy said the two spools, 20 Luvias and 19 FW were interchangeable. Years ago extra spools were free with your reel purchase and very handy to facilitate a quick line change.

    Looks good. I need to get one as I am wanting to dedicate a spool to some 1.5# test ester to use with the Diplomat Extreme when fishing for bluegill....will give me a little more challenge.

    Regards

    New Luvias LT FC 2000S in stock over on Digitaka and a few other decent Sale Items if anyone is looking for the new Daiwa spinning reel. FYI I think it is the Made In China version.

    I think they've gone out of their way to make sure everyone is aware that their Luvias stock is made in China. I can certainly appreciate that.

    Maybe the release of this new reel from ABU is what has halted production of the MGExtreme spinning reel, both US and JDM versions? Not a looker for sure, but the sub 5oz weight and a host of features found in the MGExtreme and some newly added weight saving improvements, I am sure this will become their flagship spinning reel. At the 500 buck price point...out of my range...ABU seems to be upping their game once again.
