Cabela's Daiwa Laguna, Apr 10, 2006

reviewer: progressive816 from missouri

Cabela's Tournament ZX 2000 - It's basically a Daiwa Laguna with a pearl white finish and a better handle knob.
I can't explain it, but this reel is silky smooth. It's smoother than my Daiwa Capricorn 2000. The handle has a soft rubber knob which is different from the Daiwas. Mainly the changes Cabela's made were cosmetic.
I've been using this reel for 2 years now and have not had any problems with it. The wide ABS spool is smooth casting. I have mine paired with a Cabelas TXS 6' Medium Light action rod. I use it to tackle medium sized hybrid/striped bass and occasional crappie bobber fishing (but I never put my reel down to scratch it). The reel is extremely smooth during retrieves. Twistbuster works because I hardly get line twists.
It features the Hardbodyz aluminum body. All warranties and repairs are sent to daiwa. It sports 8 stainless steel ball bearings. It has an excellent drag system to cope with those hard charging stripers. I also like the way the drag sounds when it's letting line out.
I would highly recommend this reel or the Laguna.
