New generation Alphas by Daiwa up for sale, most reviews has good appraisal for this reel mainly due to the shallow spool application. It does cast better with lighter weight lures compare to the deep normal application spool on the infamous dual Purple Alphas 103. Japanese engineers at Daiwa raise the ante on the gears to 6.8 on this sweet reel making it more suitable for finesse luring. Time to buy some small jigs and micro lures to cast with this new gen Alphas.
