What Daiwa reel to buy???

Only looking at Daiwa reels for this one. I am after a reel that is going to suit salt and fresh water fishing. Salt for snapper, mulloway and possibly some small Pelagics. Fresh for Cod.

Lets pretend money is no object on this one

I have narrowed it down to the folowing three reels:

Morethan Branzino 3000 (not the Exist Hyper Branzino)
Steez 2500
Certate 3000

Looking for a vote on these 3 or other sugestions that would suit. Rod will be chosen to suit which ever reel is pruchased.

game 3500. ive never had the pleasure of using one but know a bloke that has extensively tested morethans, certates (3500hd) and the games jigging light for sampsons and the games were the only reels that werent worse for wear after being pushed really hard.

there expensive as, and pretty heavy too, but when looking to buy a 3500hd i got told i was an idiot, and have therefore decided to save for a bit longer.

Probably looking for something physically lighter than the saltiga game's... but they are a mint reel

Morethan Branzino 3000 would be the natrual pick of the bunch you listed although I believe a 2500 size reel is possibly a better choice and therefore the Exist Hyper Branzino comes into play. I've got both as well as a couple of Certate Hyper's, Standard Certate's,Steez's and Exist's and can't really fault any of them. A Exist 3000 also comes into play here.

Certate hyper custom 2500r. tough as nails, small enough for breaming, 7kg's of drag, not too heavy (but not light), plenty of line cap.

Howdy,
Have you considered the Megabass Renlli 300?

Let me rephrase then... money is somewhat of an object

At this point I am leaning toward the Morethan for a couple of reasons... mainly line capacity and Bling factor

Cant go past the SOL 3000 if you want a sturdy snapper reel.

But no good for the bling factor.

But they are reasonabley priced!!
