The Daiwa Luvias 15 range of reels are amongst my favourites and the baby 1003 model is just perfect for ultralight line applications. This Luvias 1003 was seen on the 34 stand at the 2018 Osaka Fishing Show, displaying the company’s rose pink Zerogra Double Handle III and Balancer III. Sweet ride.
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.
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.
