It simply is not fair of you to post things like this............!! Not that I like Stellas or anything like that.

Ive been converted to the Daiwa high end reels. :spoo:
Not long ago I would have been salaveting over that picture,but no longer (well just a bit) :muttley:
I just think the Daiwas are better made

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I too have a huge soft spot for Daiwa spinning reels, but the Stella has always been (and still is) an object worthy of desire.

2009 was a rubbish year for JDM tackle releases, but already 2010 seem much, much more exiting :clap: :clap:

Long before the Japanese tackle shows in February, where the bulk of new stuff will be introduced, I have seen a few rods and reels that have ended up on my to-buy list. I have a horrible feeling that this is going to be an expensive year :bangin: :bangin:

Going from a purely shallow and aesthetic point of view, I prefer the look of Daiwas! Would love a Stella though, a reel doesnt get that many followers across the world without being something special.

2009 was OK for JDM releases - Stella and TwinPower SW which are both staying the same for 2010 afaik (the TP certainly is ...)

Personally I would always go for Shimano over Daiwa - Shimano have made some of the best top end MTB gear sets that have definately set the standard over the last 20 years so I have absolute faith in their high end products ... I am just about to splurge over some new Stella's in Feb fingers crossed!

Vidar, last time you stuck up a thread like this I hit the buy button and ended up £360 worse off, Japanese shop keepers must love you. Bad man.
