My New Luvias 3000

 

Gday all, received my new Luvias 3000 just before the weekend and love it, out of the box anyway. Plan on changing the handle and replacing the washers soon, should I wait and see if the original washers stuff up or just straight in with the replacements for peace of mind? Can't wait to get out and use it, hopefully can test the drag on some hard running fish.

Got the 2500, replaced the handle with Daiwa's Egi Knob which makes it much more comfortable for spinning.

Caught plenty of spangos upnorth and some good pinks inshore down here. Will be good when the salmon rock up aswell.

Good reel for throwing placcies for spangos up your way huh?

Cheers,
Sam

These reels are so light I couldn't believe it! Sits very well on the Nitro Mag Butt and when I get around to buying the 15lb braid it's going to be a really sweet setup.

Thanks to everyone who had an input in previous threads relating to my new setup Laughing

Cheers guys
