    Question Tatula Reels

    Could someone break down the difference between the Tatula 100 reels such as the SV TW, Elite 100XS, TWS, 100H, 100HS and XSL. Thanks in advance.

    Tatula 100 - base model of the group listed.
    Tatula SV TW 103 - The "first" of the Tatula family to feature "SV" technology.
    Tatula Elite Long Cast - Aluminum handle side plate for increased rigidity and a spool tuned for long distance casting
    Tatula Elite Pitch Flip "PF - Same aluminum handle side plate, and a spool tuned for maintaining a lower trajectory and quicker start up for pitching applications. (casts great too)

    It gets muddy going forward with Daiwa as the H, HS, XS nomenclature is undergoing a change (starting with the new US Zillion G SV TW) but for current Tatula models (except for the new 70 and 80)
    H = 6:xx ratio
    HS = 7:xx ratio
    XS = 8:xx ratio
    Add the "L" to H, HS, or XS and you have a left hand reel.

    The new Tatula 70 (which is coming in stock at The Tackle Trap next week!!) and Tatula 80 - the model name will delineate the gear ratio as follows for example
    70 = 6 ratio right hand
    70H = 7 ratio right hand
    70XH = 8 ratio right hand
    70L = 6 ratio left hand
    70HL = 7 ratio left hand
    70XHL = 8 ratio left hand

    That's a quick and dirty. I can go into significantly more detail about each model and the differences if necessary. Feel free to shoot me a PM anytime if you need to decipher any Daiwa stuff.
