Hi fellas,

Looks like "no holes" on this new release from Daiwa, just like dog fight? I may be wrong though, can't see too clearly. Picture from plat webbie.

tight lines

Mark,

I believe they are all blind and not thru holes on the handle's stem.

Cheers

Thanks, didn't know it had arrived in beach road. About the same price as the certate 3500HD if $500+ but looking at the Plat price it should cost more than the certate 3500HD...

Specs for Certate 3500 HD and GAME 3500 almost the same, except ball bearings and drag. But I guess the major difference would be the stopper-less internal design of Saltigas in the GAME as compared to Certates.

Hi Guys

Went down to Joe's and they told me they have not seen this reel yet. So I think the best info we have right now is from Plat.

has anyone had a quick comparison to the Tournament Force?? Looks like a re-vised version, ie, new paint job, new spool, power knob, no AR switch and redesigned rotor......
