Twin power or Sol
Hey guys I'm going to walpole in a couple of days and i'm intrested in getting a new combo i was thinking a tinpower 100 and a sic stick pro but its come to my attention that the sol is a similar price and i was wondering which u guys would prefer. Thanx guys

Mate they are both great reels in that price range.
I don't think you will go wrong with either one. I have 2 x 2000 SOL's and have no regrets at all great reels and very smooth drag. A mate of mine has 3 x T.P's 2500 and is extremely happy with them. I think it has to come down to personal preferences on what each reel has to offer. What ever your choice I think you'll be happy with them and I'm sure you'll have a great trip down Walpole. Cheers Simmsy.

Hey mate,
I have a sol 2500 and i just love it, it is smooth, very good drag and i recomend it to anyone in that price range. But the twinpower is also a good reel, so which ever you choose you will have a very nice real to use and you won't be disappointed  My vote: TD Sol Blake Last edited by Blake.T.; 19-01-2007 at 10:08 PM.

I just got two caldia kix 2004's- simialr design to the sol and they are amazing. I would go with the sol, simply because you have the drag power to stop a giant herring or monster skippy that frequent walpole.

sol for me
i like the twin powers but just cant go past airbail and the "waterproof tournament drag system" in the daiwas, so smooth and can put out a heap of pressure for a small reel. im happy with my sol and its been over a year of solid use every weekend, with only one small problem that was fixed no problems. as has been said before you will be happy with either reel cheers luke

Love my SOL - only got it recently, but it has handled every fish (and there havd been quite a few) beautifully. I have never felt as smooth a drag, it casts a mile and is all up a pleasure to use.
Go the SOL, unless you're a total shimano fan, of course!

I can't vouch for either reel Duncan but thought you might want to look at the warrenty on them both. I know you're unlikely to have probs but it's always great to know down the track.
just a thought anyway
