daiwa freams 4000 or other?
Submitted by snoz on Sat, 2012-03-03 09:19
I just picked up a berkley dropshot gen3 8-12kg very cheap and it now needs a new reel. I have a seido 4000 matched to a 6-8kg dropshot with an unloaded spare spool and some 30lb braid lying around however was looking for something a little bigger to balance the rod. The seido is just too light imo.
I have my eye on the Daiwa Freams 4000. Is this appropriate for demersal plastics fishing/lights jigging with octo jigs and light frankys etc? Will the zion body stand up to the task or is a full metal reel a better option?

The Daiwa Freams is an
The Daiwa Freams is an awesome reel for the price and will stand up to what you want to use it for, The other option that would be suitable for this would be the new FJ series Stradic in either the 4000 or 5000 (Same size body as 4000 stradic just larger spool capacity-Better suited to 30lb) We will have these back in stock soon.
