Daiwa Exceler LT reels - whaddya reckon

[sevric]

I will be most interested to see how the new LT versions of the Daiwa range perform in the long term. They look the goods on paper but the real world is a very different place. As they have not been available for all that long it is kinda hard to assess their durability so if anyone has been giving one a fair flogging please let us all know. Recently i was put off purchasing one of the LT range as i was skeptical of the power to weight ratio (it was for larger snapper) as well as the price point. I had been looking at the new SOL which has this LT design but for the money there were other proven reels to choose from. I liked the weight, sceptical of the power and horrified by the price.
