Reel question
I decided to put this in the rod forum. Rule bender.
Have any of you thrown a daiwa SL or GW reel? The sealed drag washers seem like a good idea to me. Especially when wade fishing. I've dunked abus before, and afterward the drags bound down pretty good with a running fish. And when i get home I have to--or feel then need to--strip the reel down and clean the salt out of the bearings. Is the daiwa fully sealed?
Also: what about the Trinidads? These reel are out of my price range, but the guys that I know who own them love them.
I've been using abus and penns for years now, am use to them, can take them apart fast, tune them, have spare parts, and can put up with their idiosyncrasies.
Just wondering about the daiwas and shimanos.
