Love the channel Nick. Keep up with vids man, watching them keeps me sane in the world we live in today. I have both the jdm zillion and metanium, but I find myself grabbing the zillion over the metanium just for the fact that it is so versatile and it has the clicky drag!

@RXAngler 2 года назад

Thanks bro for the nice comment. I appreciate you. I love both reels and I honestly feel they are pretty even.

@phatndo 2 года назад

The metanium imo is smoother, but I don’t want to take the side plate off the reel in the middle of lake to adjust the brakes when changing lures. If I’m striper fishing with a 1oz plug then switching to a 1/8 oz rooster tail for white bass, all I have to do is adjust the brake dial on the zillion. That to me is awesome.

I love mine. I’ve gotten most of the “tuning” parts for it off AliExpress and it has the loudest drag clicker which I like. It looks sick. My thumb fits right in that groove on the top front too. I’ll be enjoying mine for years.

@bruceraiken2806 8 месяцев назад

I much enjoyed your review, and your enthusiasm of presentation. I have been considering this reel after hearing so much praise about it - how it performs and great looks is always a plus! My one reservation and perhaps I'm being a bit silly about it, but Daiwa doesn't dish out a bunch of info on line capacities on this reel. Some sellers are listing (for mono/FC which I prefer over braid) 85yds of 16# and 100 yds of 14#. Other sellers I have seen 100 yds of 8# and 80 yds. of 10#. I tend to think that the former would be more reasonable. But even if that is true and the latter is simply wrong, still that would seem to be a very low capacity , maybe even for a standard 100 size casting reel? I was thinking of getting the 6.3 ratio for small (3-4") swimbaits and smaller to mid-size crankbaits (maybe 3xd, was hoping 5xd), but with that small a spool I'm not sure this would be a good choice for those applications. What are your thoughts about line capacity, and any suggestions regarding my concern would be much appreciated. Otherwise I might bite on the 7.1:1 ratio for more bottom contact like mojo plastics, Trigs and the like! I've just subscribed to your channel because I like your content and style of presentation. I'll be checken out some more of your material.

@montyjerkins5848 2 года назад

I have the JDM model also. It’s my only Daiwa baitcaster. My Metaniums (also JDM) cast a little further and palm a little better but I’m really happy with the Zillion. The ultra low inertia smoothness on a different level. It even surpasses my Calcutta Conquest 100

@RXAngler 2 года назад

Agreed!

@jello7281 2 года назад

Digitaka has them for 32000 JPY now. And the yen is low right now so thata about 250 bucks US. The SV reels are almost fool proof. I've given a Tatula SV103 to a complete baitcast newbie and he was bombing casts in no time. I just ordered a JDM Zillion SV. Can't wait to get it!

@jackchristensen7725 2 года назад

I have both of those reels and find myself using my Metanium much more. It’s a bit more expensive $$$$ but well worth it! I love them both though…. Great video! Oh, and I agree about casting distance being beaten in the ground. So many more important aspects to a good quality & high performance reel 👌🏻

@RXAngler 2 года назад

Agreed! Metanium is a very nice reel. Can’t go wrong with both. Thanks!

@jpap967 Год назад

The Zillion is better. The spool is better, the drag, the drag clicker, etc. Much easier to throw a variety of lighter and heavier weights without much adjustment needed. That being said, my metanium excites me more. The Zillion is like a Toyota Camry, reliable A to B transportation. The metanium is like a 6 speed manual corvette

@hoon5150 2 года назад

Hey Nick love the content. I own a couple of these reels because I wade fish 90% of the time. My Shimanos seem to get sticky after a couple trips and then I'm replacing the pinion bearing (ceramic). With these being expensive I'm a little worried about wading with them. Thoughts on this since I know you wade as well?

@RXAngler 2 года назад

I’ve wade fished with this reel a few times but mostly kayak fish. With any reel, I try to avoid getting as much saltwater into them and immediately wipe down them with a damp cloth at home. So far, no issues with the amount of spray and general saltwater after each use.

I just received a brand new Daiwa Zillion 21 SV TW G reel ( ZLNSVG100H ) but without the cast control cap or the stem. Where can I order an authentic replacement cap and stem for it or any that is compatible? I think the Daiwa part number is H28-1201 but I’m not 100% sure on that or what the stem it covers is. This Zillion 21 is a pretty well known reel so I figured you guys might have a good idea of what would work here. Thank you!

Nice reel! Do you think it would take a beating from a decent size inshore saltwater fish? Lets say a 7kg fish. Planning to get one. But im just not sure if it would take a beating from decent size fish here in New Zealand. Of course apart from proper aftercare, would the gears and bearings last? Or should I go to the bigger brother, the Zillion TW HD? But a little on the heavy side though. Planning to cast rigs from 5 to 15grams. I would appreciate an advice. Thank you! Keep posting awesome vids mate!

@Impossibly-Possible Год назад

I want the best version of the zillion in left hand high speed l, I want the fastest gears left handed in the most robust version, I have been using my Lews tournament pro speed spool since 2015 without any maintenance and it still works good, been beating it with 50# braid with drag locked down fishing frogs in heavy cover dragging out heavy beasts with tons of weeds along for the ride, bringing in 20-40 pounds of weeds and fish, even with the reel being stuck and grinding a bit when I take it out after sitting a while without being cleaned, I cast and reel it one time and it works out the kinks and she’s a reliable monster at all times, I want something that I can use for long periods of time without steady maintenance.

@philipfalco7304 8 месяцев назад

I recently purchased the 22' Met. Shallow then purchased the U.S. 2020 deep spool and a 90mm handle and now I just love that thing. It just stinks that I had to put $100 bucks into it. I do love the JDM Zillion also. That thing is just so user friendly and cast's effortlessly and far without messing with the brakes.

If your catching redfish with it then obviously the aluminum gearing is plenty tough and durable. Also, right now you can pick up the JDM zillion sv for about $250.

@bigboypockets2041 Год назад

Just bought a JDM version on the 14th. Really excited, I doubt the bearing make much a difference but with the jpy to usd being low, I couldn’t spend 370 instead of 250 even if brass bearing were wayy better. In your advice though, how should I maintain my bearings, like should I lube them once a year instead of 2 cuz the aluminum?

@michaelbrohl1625 Год назад

@Bigboy Pockets its not the bearings that are aluminum. It's the main gear. Just do routine maintenance as usual.

What’s difference from hd tw, sv tw, Tws hd, and the 2018 of those and 2021 and 2022?

There are no better reels for the price. Upgrade this thing to 12 ball bearings and it become smsoother than anything ever released from Shimano. Super light, compact, very durable gears, super smooth and casts well. If you need this reel to outcast shimano offerings, since these support the 34mm spools, there are dozens of aftermaket spools that would clap your Met2020 or whatever else Shimano has, just don't use an SV spool. I hope that future Daiwa reels are this intelligently build.

@@RXAngler but I bet the breaks are better on the Zillion.

@salmaandockrat6989 2 года назад

So I’ve been fishing Shimano bait casters all my life , I am fortunate enough to own a few of Metaniums amongst many other Shimanos . I have alway been interested in trying out a few Daiwas, this one in particular caught my eye. My question is how is the transition switching between the two in terms of breaks, casting and overall performance would really appreciate hearing back from you.

@Scarbosul 2 года назад

I have the Zillion, it's a very easy reel to use. Unlike the Metanium, the Zillion lacks a centrifugal braking system, and there is also no need to adjust the spool tension knob. This means the only thing that needs to be adjusted 99% of the time is the magnetic brake (1-20). It does everything well, and I've actually noticed that it has a short break-in period (a few hours of use), after which casting starts to feel even better. I think both Shimano and Daiwa make great reels, I do find that the Zillion is probably the reel that requires the least fiddling for me to consistently get great results.

@EddieLindsay681 2 года назад

@philipfalco7304 Месяц назад

You can't go wrong with either. I have 2 of the Curado 150 MGL in HG and XG and the JDM Zillion in HG. The Curado's have bigger handles, a stronger drag and casts a little further; However the Zillion is sooo user friendly, casts plenty far and I've yet to backlash it. The Zillion would be the first bait caster I would recommend to beginners or anyone just getting into bait casting.
