    Hey Fitzy,

    I guess you guys love Daiwa stuff there eh?
    I use both Shimano and Daiwa and other brands.

    I asked which 103 models they have been using
    because the new on that I was mentioning
    that's going to be released in March here
    is the TD-X 103HSDF, it's a supertuned one.
    I don't think that one is out in Australia yet,
    but I am sure if you like the ones you guyd have now,
    you will like this one.

    What kind of fishing do you guys do down there?

    Nice! Yeah, I have used the CV-Z and that one is nice!

    May I ask where in the States did you get the 103HSDF?

    Does it actually say HSDF on the reel?

    Cool!

    Hey Jack,

    The Daiwa baitcaster TD-X103HSDF on the tackle tour website. The cost being quoted as MSRP of $209.95. Is that USD or AUD?

    Hey Finny,

    That's USD. You know where to find the conversion
    rate right?

    Re: New Daiwa reel

    Yep doubling is close enough........So what are your shipping charges like and also is it possible to overcome the GST & Customs duty we would have to pay seeing it would be over the $330-00 AUD mark?

    Hey Finny,

    You want one so bad eh? =) hehe
    This reel will not be on the USA market until
    March. I will find out when it will be released
    to AU.

    Actually, TackleTour is an online magazine for
    the latest and greatest tackle news and reviews.
    We do not sell anything. We have no connection
    with any stores either, keeping our reviews
    totally unbiased.

    I will let you know where you can purchase this
    reel later. Probably Bass Pro or Cabelas.
    Email me in March or check our website later
    for where you can buy one.

    Thanks!

    Re: New Daiwa reel

    Okay, I went online to Bass Pro shops and they do ship international. So once they get it, so can you.

    Cabelas also does international orders:

    Hope this helps.

    Re: New Daiwa reel

    Hi Jack,
    I have used and abused Bass Pro in the past as I find it cheaper to get some gear (not all) cheaper from the US even if you have to pay shipping. In saying that I tend to find that reels work out about the same but I figure that from the quality of this reel and the price you are talking it sounds like it might be cheaper in the US. I wanted to purchase a baitcasting combo but eventually settled on a G-Loomis GL2 spinning rod with an Okuma Epix - 20 reel all bought in Oz. The total cost being $425 AUD ($215 USD). The only reason I steered away from the baitcasters was the cost and figured I could cope just fine with the above combo with 4lb Fireline. It is a nice combination and I can cast the light lures a good distance and have minimal looping problems.

    Still would like a baitcaster combo too....:&gt Just being greedy I guess!!!!..lol

    Regards
    Finny
