Own the 3k certate, 2.5k exist, 3.5k saltiga bay jig, (2) 3k ballistics, and 2.5k procyon.Sold all my shimanos and don’t regret it one bit. Daiwa makes the best reels for saltwater and freshwater applications hands down for durability, longevity, and toughness. Not to mention the LT reels being light as a feather and the smoothness is none other.

how do you compare certate (lt I hope) vs exist?
@ialexmani
3 жыл бұрын
@@dinkobilic9078 the certate and exist has pretty much identical smoothness, but weight wise the exist is lighter(yes certate lt and exist lt). I got both my reels about the same time and use it both inshore and freshwater applications. Both handle bigger inshore fish very nicely (tautog, stripers, redfish, sheepshead, black drum, flounder, etc). But i have notice the certate lost some of it’s smoothness not much but compared to the exist, it’s still smooth as the day i got it. Also what i’ve liked about the exist is that the common daiwa problem with line overlay w/o shimming does not exist on the Exist(hah). I have owned the Stella FJ and imo i thought it felt like a stradic to me. Exist blows the Stella out of water in terms of smoothness, longevity w/o service, element toughness, and drag control. If you don’t want to spend the money on an Exist(understandable) then at least try the certate. Daiwa has definitely put their money where their mouth is.

These high end diawas and shimanos are out of this world powerful. My bought me a diawa saltiga 4000 instead of a wedding ring ( she knows me). Last week we went out on a fishing trip on the space coast, the captain was running all spinfishers a good reel for sure, but heavy. After fighting big Jack's and sharks on both the smoothness and power from the saltiga is unreal. I could gain line so easily on 4-5 foot sharks on a rod and reel that is light enough to cast bass lures all day. I believe the fishing industry has some of the best engineers in the world.

I have 6-7 Stradic FLs (all on different models of Star Rods...Stellers, Seagis and Sequences I love the Stradic/Star Rod combo and I use often. They are relatively high end and I love them. I went more high end and recently purchased two new Shimano Stellas within the last 6 months...a 2500 and a 4000. I have the 2500 on a GLmoois E6X Inshore and the 4000 on a GLoomis IMX-Pro Blue...which is by far my favorite inshore/nearshore rod I’ve ever owned...followed by the E6X and and Star Seagis models. I love the Stellas so much and they are around the same price of the exists. I think I’m going to get the 3000 and put it on a custom rod I’m having made for me by a small rod builder called ECS Rod Co. Based in Southport, NC.

The bigger/stronger/forged/unobtanium gear has no bearing on torque. I don't know why people say this as it is just wrong. Just as a thicker gear does not make more torque. Torque is related to the gear RATIO. A higher speed reel = less torque, lower speed = more torque, same as a bicycle. A bigger / thicker gear may be physically stronger though. They are a great reel imho.

Its a very smooth reel but its hard to maintain it yourself. I had accidentally dunked mine and water came inside the body even if it was only a few seconds so keep in mind this reel is not water proof. When I reassembled my reel the buttery smoothness was gone so I tried my best to realign everything but alas to no avail so I had to bring it to a service center. Besides that for the price range, the new Twin Power XD does not even come close to the level of refinement this reel has

@@muskyvictim no, Compact sizes are designed for reeling in small fish with ease, n light weight, they already engineered the gear size match with the drag capacity, you can't overload it, but bigger gear will give u slightly better torque ( mean you can use less force to reel in the same force of the fish pulling vs the smaller gear) n bigger gear mean heavier, because the bigger gear higher torque, therefore it's less stress on the gear vs the smaller diameter, that's is why in the long run , the bigger gear will last longer. Meanwhile smaller gear may bent or loosely connect to the oscillation gear. It won't fail but rather take long period of time to stress out
