The Facts: The Daiwa Millionaire CV-X cating reel's frame and sideplates are machined from solid bar stock aluminum and is hard anodized to resist corrosion. The reel has a Super Speed Shaft floating spool system for minimum casting friction. It also features an internally adjusted Magforce V magnetic anti-backlash system. Less bearings, different drive train, and the aluminum oxide line guide (vs. titanium) are some differences between the CV-X and the CV-Z

Daiwa Millionaire CV-X 300, Apr 03, 2005

I love this reel for jiggin on boats and throwing big hammers with 1 1/2 jigheads. You don't even need to thumb the spool and backlashes are a rare occasion. I use it for soaking live baits as well. the clicker could be a little louder...

I use my CV-X203a mostly for light inshore saltwater in Southern California. It's a great reel for throwing plastics and other small lures. Mine's loaded with 8# P-Line and I've caught everything from legal halibut to bass to bonito on it. It casts great and is solidly built with quality and precision. The screw-off sideplate with the mag-brake adjusment within is quite ingenious.

Because I use it in saltwater, regular maintenance is a must. Salt can definitely intrude into the sideplate and gearbox if you're not careful.

My only complaint would be the stock drag materials. Mine got a little sticky after less than a full season. I replaced them with Penn HT-100s in the Jigmaster (500) size and the drags have been flawless since.
