Exactly my thoughts also 🤷♂️😂😂😂 Why does Daiwa USA skimp 🤷♂️🤦♂️ on new products every yr (i.e - Icast 2022) (What maybe 3 or or 4 New Reels and Rods, Procyon MQ, Coastal 80, Tatula XT Etc) when Daiwa Australia seems to put out a lot more better High-End Gear 👍🏻 from what I can see here I just don't understand this why here in the USA Daiwa leaves us out of all the good stuff! 🤔🤷♂️🤦♂️😂😂😂.....You guys are really lucky here! 👍🏻

My go to and most confident braid to leader knot from kingfish to bream would be the FG Knot- 10 alternating FG, 10 half hitches and a 5 wind rizutto finish.

FG knot is my go to for a line to leader knot - takes time to learn, but well worth it once mastered!

I use different line-leader knots for different situations. FG for rigging up at home on anything over 4lb leader, Alberto knot for 4lb and under and a 5 turn surgeon knot if I’m retying in strong wind, or if I have cold wet hands on the kayak. I also like a surgeons knot if there is very little difference in my leader and braid diameter, 6lb braid to 2lb leader, the braid doesn’t bite in very well with the Alberto and the leader can slip right through.

I absolutely love the look of that new Maverick MQ, it looks and sounds like a best of a reel, the Maverick MQ looks premium and high quality like all your other reels, the Maverick MQ stands out to me because of its gear set up as inside the reels body it is running a G1 dura lumen drive gear setup and this is exactly the same gear setup as everyones favours the Saltiga and the Certain SW which are both amazing reels, the Maverick MQ stands out to me more then other reels because it has the G1 dura lumen drive gear set up and it has a Zion air rotor to allow a super smooth and powerful retrieve, this reel also stands out to me because of its looks, the reel comes will a aluminium round knob and has a mag seal body under the rotor and a mag seal ball bearing installed. all of these features makes this reel a super smooth and powerful reel that will be perfect for small game fish like Mahi Mahi, King fish, Cobia, Mackerel, samsonfish, amberjack, little tuna, wahoo, small marlin, sailfish, and even small sharks. This reel is so versatile because I can use it jigging for kingfish or samsomfish and amberjack, and I can use it for live baiting for small pelagics, and I can also use it for trolling skirts and large hard bodys around for small pelagics. I will love to win this Maverick MQ reel because I am only 15 and have a huge fishing addiction but its hard for me to buy such a reel like the Maverick MQ, this reel will be amazing for me because it will help me to pursue my fishing adventures.
