Does anyone know when the fireblood series will be out in QLD (i know they will be out in '08 but i want to know if i should spend money on a reel soon or wait till next year.)or know how much it will approximately be for the 2500 series.

It shouldnt be too long, we have one at work which is going for $549.99 and it's the 2500 size.
If you ask your local tackle shop they should be able to order one for you.

Its only one step below a Stella, I would have thought that would be about par in the pricing structure......

I thought it would have been more! after all, the Aspires are only slightly cheaper than that. I was expecting around the $600-650 mark.

Do you really think these reels are worth the $$$$$$$'s ??? I really do not know anything about them! And I'm not having a go at anyone who doe's use more expensive gear at all. But,sometimes the prices of some reel's,really makes me wonder What do you think? "So far,I'm still happy with my Stradic 1000FH & Penn 1000 for Bream fishing. They have not let me down as yet! Gae

I personally dont think theyre worth the dollars, coz i'm a daiwa man. but At $365 as oppossed to what theyre going for in the shops right now, i'd know what i'd be doing.

365 is a bloody good steal of a deal.
Pricey bit of kit though (looking at shop prices). For something just under the Stella, though, it's behind as far as the newer technology goes. I think they are the same as the Sephia, personally, just different handles and spools. Absolutely $#!t-hot looking, and the Fireblood rods are awesome too. |

Sure, cheaper models may 'do the job', but there's something special about having a reel run smooth as silk, lightweight enough to cast all day, lay line beautifully, and have a drag to stop something when you really need to. I'm sure we could all still catch fish with cheaper reels, but it all boils down to the enjoyment we get from using a more reliable/better performing equipment I think it's an addiction !!
