Wow, those are nicely dressed up reels. They almost look too nice to get dirty and wet lol. Cheers

i use all my reels, would be a waste if i just keep them as shelf queens!

My coworkers rushed to my cubicle….they thought I was having a seizure…I reassured them the drool was perfectly normal!

First off,

Great collection.

How do you like the bassart aluminum knobs?

Is this an Ito alphas?


If so, how do you like it? It is something I have been toying with buying lately, I just seem to like the stock colour better. And does the clear side plate flex at all?

I also love the looks of the td-Ito 103 you have there and they still command a good amount of money...

Thanks for sharing!

I no longer use the aluminum knobs for baitcast, they look good but aren't really comfortable. I now use them on my spinning reels only! The megabass zaoin knobs are the worst!! Useless, must be changed.

It is an Ito Alphas, the reel is solid, just harder to maintain as sometimes braid bleed off gets into the clear plate and you need to clean it more often. I haven't noticed any flexing at all.

The TD-Ito is a beauty...i changed the spool because the original Type R spool spins way to fast for casting.

Wow those are some nice reels. Im hoping to upgrade some in the near future

Who's next!?

Who's next!?

Couple Daiwa Tatula R are in the books for the heavy stuff. Sold off all my Abu so i need reels for punching and froggin.

Already on order but still deciding if i will go 8.1:1 or 6.3:1. I like the added power of the 6.3:1 and seems more versatile.

I would not have thought about the braid bleed off. How about the polished aluminum finish? Does it take a lot of cleaning to keep it looking that prestine?

And my big question... Is the td-Ito worth what you pay for it used? I ask because it goes for over $300.00 and is a couple of years old now. Is there a reel it campares to on the market today?

Their looks alone make me want one but it would be great to have an idea how they work or what you would/are using it for.

Thanks for the info.
