#1 Post by weaverboy »

would it be fair to say some of the older rocket models have become
very popular with tournament-casters, some reckon its the number
one reel for the job,

the diawa turbo is also a very popular reel and the last few 300 yard casts done by chris brayler at steyning where done using the diawa turbo.

hello nthclare, thats correct the diawa 7ht-turbo is red, totally
revamped, especially the free floating spool incorperated into
the reel, makes it that bit quicker.
