Daiwa Exist 18 LT2000S-H Finesse Custom
One of the most desirable items at the 2018 Osaka Fishing Show – the brand new Daiwa Exist 18. This top-of-the-range Daiwa spinning reel pictured here, the LT2000S-H Finesse Custom has been pushed to even greater heights with a full SLP Works upgrade kit including, spool, handle and handle cap. Whoa mumma!
Super Cool Rapala Japan
I don’t know why but some things are just cooler in Japan. As an example, check out this luggage and range of caps from Rapala Japan. Big logos. Contrasting colour blocking. Looks great. #saynotocamo [seen in-hand at the Osaka Fishing Show 2018]
Shimano Soare CI4+ C2000 SSPG Custom
During my time in Japan, I gained the opinion that the Shimano Soare CI4 C2000 was a bit of a staple among Japanese Light Game anglers. The kind of reel that every other is judged against.
Shimano Stella 18 JDM
2018 is a new Stella year – yay! The latest iteration of the Shimano Stella sees the spinning reel benchmark brought right up to date once again.
Abu Works Custom Reel Parts
Nice find at a Japanese wholesaler in Osaka. First time I’ve seen custom reel parts for the Revo spinning reel platform. This Revo 2000 RS74 SP Kit from Abu Works looked super dope!
Shimano x 34 Soare CI4 500S
Seen in Fishing 1Ban tackle shop, North Osaka. Already fallen in love. Tiny, tiny, tiny, Shimano Soare CI4 500S, pimped with Thirty34Four’s dope Zerogra III double handle and Balancer.
