that'd be alright.
gekka mx for the more finesse in that price range.
ballistic for the higher ratio and line cap!

Yeah very affordable for something that looks as slick as that.

Does anyone know if we're definitely getting them here in Aust or are they for the Japanese market only?

Don't know about it being 200 here. That is what it is going for in the US by the looks and they have November down as stock arrival.

Ok, I got my hands on the 2500 model and I am very happy with the value for money. A Certate look alike without the hefty price tag to go with it.

I think the colour is awesome, matches up to the blanks on my duff rods.

Mine is realy smooth at the moment, I would assume that they will loosen up and be a little slopy like the SOL, caldia and advantage. Im sure alot of you will not support your local tackle shops and buy online for cheap. I bought through a local and they not only matched the online price but beat it by $10.00 . Thats what happens when you dont buy everything online!!

RRP is $259.00 with a discount you may get it for $225.00 thats very cheap for this kind of reel. The Stradic will be demolished by this.

I cant wait to get out on the water and give it a thrashing. If they hold up well I will be putting a few more on my deck
