STEPHEN MCCAVENY: Given that its foundation was a big, distance-casting reel for the Japanese surf market, the tech-leap part was more easily realised, but the process of getting it to suit the challenges of modern carp fishing was where much of the unseen design effort occurred

the total weight of reel is reduced, oscillation is improved, less resistance during winding and rotation, better balance when attached to the rod and of course the reel feels light and easy to fish

Long story short it isnt that great

While the reel does boast a smooth carbon dag, the stopping power is somewhat lacking at 13 pounds
