Tested out the new rod

[NIZ]

I took the new HL-Z out last night & today for a fish and god damn is it so so sweet. For those that don't know I kept dropping hints a couple a weeks before chrissy that I wanted a HL-Z Saegake Hama special and the GF ended up taking the bait

I was able to cast 1/32 weights so smoothly and effortlessly. I even nailed a 28cm fork length bream. All I need now is a 2000 Luvias or Certate as I don't think my Capricorn does this rod justice. I highly recommend this rod to anyone considering a new finesse rod.

What does a Luvias or Certate do that a Capricorn doesnt?

Without looking at the price tag, they are all the same!

Good marketing at Daiwa

It's a sweet rod that Saegake. I have a Luvias 1500 on mine and certainly wouldn't want to go any bigger than that. A Capricorn would be way to big.

Just like saying a volvo is the same as a mercedes, they all roll on wheels and get you from a to b.

All I had to do was spin the handle on a Certate and I knew.

The Certate practically winds itself. My 2500R-Custom is the smoothest reel I've ever fished with.

although this is getting away from the rod subject, i just bought two certate 2000's and i have to say they are very very nice... i use a stella 2500FA and the new 2500FB also and it is hard to tell which one i out of them i prefer
