Must admit to having a wee chuck with it and it is fast even with the big brake blocks in it! 8)

Would have to say it is a definite improvement on the original.

I didn't realize the first time I looked at the price £129.99, by the time you convert that into euros and add the extra VAT, your looking at €200.00, taking into account next year Daiwa are doing a mag model that will probably add at least €30.00 to the price, it wants to be good 8)

Hi guys,

If this reel is on your Crimbo list I have been Talking to Henry (Henry's Tackle, Dublin) He mentioned that the RRP on these was about €260 - €270 He said he'll let them go for €235 cash. He should have 6 in Today. He did mention that they were very hard to get but it seems that they are selling all over the place.

130 squids in Belfast versus 260 yo-yos in Dublin?

How the bleep do they justify that?!!

:shock:

£129.99 mail order also and if someone brings in 6 of them i imagine they are getting them that bit cheaper as well perhaps??some shops seem to be able to match mail order price no problem while others wont even try.
