alamak! 1dollar, this is a new or used one?

Bro 1$,
Sadly to share with you that, the anti reverse got nothing to do with the clutch.. Be it you press or not pressing the clutch, there should not be reverse handle actions...

New unit bought from Ebay,.. couldnt resist the cheap price!
Saw in kepong selling 670 and some kaki here bought 400
I only paid 287 ringgit lol,.. brand new unit in box.

I've emailed the seller in US liao,.. reputable seller with proper shop.
Hope he respond back... but i rugi another round of shipping cost.

Alternatively, order an anti reverse from Daiwa?

just the part only, provided it is certified that the AR is not functioning

yup thats the alternative. but still need to take the reel apart to see whats wrong inside. and can clean up and lube up as well.. should have order the boca orange seal and carbontex drags. no need to bukak again next time.

its a lovely reel,.. like it so much... my first ever BC reel.
terasa to get another same reel from the same seller till i found infinite reverse. haiihhzz

dear sifu

i wanna ask does using braid as main line will cast further compare using mono line ?

and

if the main line is braid why does people use mono line as leader line ? or is there any specific reason for that ?

Well, this is what i know...

Casting distance Braid vs Mono (assuming casting at the same weight of 12g)
20lb braided vs 20lb mono on a BC setup

1. Line diameter - 20lb braided is definitely thinner thus lessen the air friction.
2. Line weight - 20lb braided is definitely lighter thus not causing any drag

Logically based on the above deduction, braided line definitely will surpass the distance comparo to mono line. Anyone has any comments?

As for the braided line to use mono leader due to few reasons.
1. Braided line does not have any stretch, having a leader at the front, absorbs the shock for hook setting
2. Braided line, due to it's thin diameter, is not much of a abrasion resistance. Mono is better on this as it's thicker and with different material.

FYI bro Katsumoto, my definition of mono leader is not those reel mono as per se. Leader for braids are usually based on 3 main criteria, Material made of, Stiffness and Diameter.

Leader types(as per my own knowledge and experience)
1. Regular Mono Leader(could not find any pics, but it's those in a roll and around RM0.50 per roll type. Cheap and useable)
2. Shock Leader


3. Fluorocarbon Leader


4. Titanium Leader


5. Fluorocarbon + Shock Leader


Usually, these good quality leaders' will burn a hole in our pocket. Some as cheap as RM0.50 and branded ones goes from RM80 to RM150 for 20M of leader!!

To me personal usage, as i have used most of the above mentioned, it caters to it's own special use too.
1. The regular mono, i use for my regular Snakehead hunting
2. Shock Leader, i use for trips that goes into the wild for Snakehead. We may not know how snaggy the place qould be, and having better quality leaders would minimize the chances of busting.
3. Fluorocarbon Leader, trip that is high fishing pressure areas. Finesse fishing or targeting PB.
4. Titanium Leader, trips that goes into the wild for Snakehead or Plabuk(BSR) and particularly for popping
5. Fluorocarbon + Shock, purely for jigging trips only.

Hope these helps
