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.
