Daiwa Zillion TW HD Baitcasting Reel The new Daiwa ZILLION TW HD is a high-end reel for the discerning bass fisherman. Well suited for cranking, small swimbaits, pitching and flipping, it is a versatile, smooth operating workhorse that excels at many different roles where precision performance is requisite. The superior performance begins with long casts from the G1 Duralumin Deep Spool, constructed from a lighter, very strong alloy which allows more line capacity for its size. The T-Wing Design level-wind allows line to pay out freer, with less friction, improving distance. The 10+1 ball bearings are encased in a solid Aluminum Frame and Aluminum Side Plate making for an extremely smooth reel with tight tolerances. To prevent dirt and water intrusion, a Magsealed Ball Bearing is utilized at the most vulnerable spot on the crank. Equipped with the Ultimate Tournament Drag (UTD), the reel has smooth stopping power. The Extended UVA Handle is easy to grab and applies more torque per crank. If you are looking to please the bass angler on your shopping list, you owe yourself a look at one of the smoothest operating reels on the market, the ZILLION TWS HD. Retail price is $399.99.

Pursuit Energy Revitalization, it’s what anglers want in an energy drink, and what they often need in the field. Each 16-ounce serving of Pursuit Energy has about the same amount of caffeine as two cups of coffee, and it’s the caffeine that delivers the initial boost when most wanted or needed. Additionally, Pursuit Energy’s blend of B vitamins, Inositol (a naturally derived type of carbohydrate), and Taurine (an amino acid your body naturally produces) work together with the stimulating effect of the caffeine to heighten awareness and focus by improving blood flow, oxygenation, and nerve communication within the body. Most energy drinks don’t go down so easy, they’re either too sweet and syrupy, taste like medicine – or worse, both! Pursuit Energy is made differently, and tastes like a refreshing soft drink. Multiple flavors are available. |
