I have the Exsence 2021 for seatrout fishing and JDM Vanquish for brown trout fishing, I really prefer the solid higher resistance 0 freeplay substantial feel of Exsence over the Vanquish featherlight spin. The higher power drag, better bearings, more grease etc is all there for specifically salt water fishing.

Hi victor, found your channel last week and really love it even though I’m mostly a bass fisherman. But, that’s about to change. Your excitement for pan fish has really made me want to try more pan fishing. I just ordered the Vanquish from digitaka and am now searching for a nice rod to go with it. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the entertaining and educational videos. I’ve learned so much and hopefully, soon, I will be out in the water doing some serious bluegill fishing. Looking forward to the next video.

i didn't want to go there, with all the time i spent on that recently : ).

Hi Victor, recently started watching your channel and it is quite refreshing... esp. your laid back matter of fact delivery. I recently bought a Luvias 3000XH from Digitaka and it noted Made in China as opposed to Made in Japan. I found out from further research that the 1st batch was MiJ but later batches weren't. I'm sure this is just an assembly thing right as all parts will be sourced from wherever it can be made cheaper/better? - comparative advantage (economics). Like the iPhone is made in China/Taiwan. I am looking at adding a 3000 size Luvias Airity and Exsence (maybe Vanquish also) based on your reviews. Keep up the great work!

Thank you! Yes, there doesn't seem to be a difference in quality of assembly between the reels assembled in Japan and the ones assembled in China. And yet, when it comes time to resell them, i am sure the ones made in Japan will resell higher : ). I have a Presso, which is the same reel, and it is made in China. It feels very nice.

I know I've said before that I had this reel, but returned it and got myself a Daiwa Luvias Airity a few days ago. Japanese model (3000s-cxh) which is not officially for sale in European countries, unless you pay a ridiculous amount of cash (+600 euro). It's like a certate but much improved. Worth the extra cash? Yes! Much lighter and design aesthetics is even more beautiful. Hands down to daiwa here, they make the most beautiful reels that beats Shimano. If you ever get the chance, look into the Daiwa Luvias Airity. They got a wide range of models from the 1000 model (150g) to more heavy (200g) for the 4000 model. Btw great review, after using mine for a bit I didn't like it after all, atleast not for the cash it's offered for, since i got the airity for the same price (430 euro).. ;-)

@ifishcatfish
@ifishcatfish Жыл бұрын
very tough call.. probably vanford, but not due to mechanics or gears and not even due to lower resistance, as both reels have near 0 resistance. I like the flat line lay and it works better for polyester lines. I also like that it is very easy to open and clean and regrease, or change bearings or whatever. It is very user friendly inside. Daiwa is nasty to open, even without magseal.

I’ve watched all of your reel videos and I respect your opinion highly. I have never owned a shimano spinning reel. I want to get one to compare to my daiwa. For bass fishing would you say exsence for $100 more than twinpower? I feel like luvias airity blows all these out of the water for ultralight but I have to know.
@ifishcatfish
@ifishcatfish 2 жыл бұрын
for Bass, i would go with the aluminum frame of Twinpower. Some extra security during boat runs and high stress hooksets. The exsense is more finesse. If you are used to heavier weights due to bass fishing, and for me 1/8 is very heavy, then you will indeed prefer the Exist Airity. But try tossing trout magnet on 1/64 jig head and you will find the extra resistance annoying.

Didn't realize that the body was exactly the same as the Vanquish. The Exsence is somewhere between the Stella and the Vanquish but it's obviously closer to the Vanquish! Great review as always, thanks for the good content! PS I actually recently got the reel myself and made a short video on it too. The one thing I disagree is that, at least for me, it feels like a much stronger reel then the vanquish. True, it is very similar to the vanquish, but it is a saltwater reel and the more sturdy handle gives the reel a different feel. Here is my video below if you want to see it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/anSYm56LrLGgm80

I would never dream to use my Vanquish to even attempt the hook sets and power needed for this technique. I use my Vanquishs' for Trout and light line fishing. And YES, I like it better than my 19 Stella.

assuming u watched the video and u understand the differences... it depends... I can see a scenario where the Exsence would make sense for freshwater. I hate the high gear ratio but i love the all black look. If u don't mind the higher resistance and higher gear ratio and prefer the look - thats totally fine. Also, if some website has the exsence significantly cheaper than vanquish, they again it would make sense to go that route. Mayte there are other scenarios. I pointed the differences. Then its a matter of whats more important for you.

No. The 2500 size does not have 1000 internals. Thats not even possible if the body is 2500 as the mainshaft is shorter. U may be getting confused with soecial size 2500FC but the whole body of those reels is 1000, not just the internals. The internals are not swappable between 1000 and 2500.

Hi Victor coming to you from Vancouver Island where I have much salt water experience. Magnesium corrodes very easily and looks bad in short order. Generally it adds about a $100 per reel.ight strong but will turns to dust used In salt water. Freshwater no problem at all. Also it seems like plastic chrome is to big of a expense for Shimano and Daiwa for their customers. I miss the good old days with luxurious plastic. chrome. Hope this helps any confusion.

Has anyone tried to replace the grease? Will it be similar in smoothness to the vanquish
@ifishcatfish
@ifishcatfish 2 жыл бұрын
smoothness is the same. Grease doesn't change smoothness. If anything, thick grease makes things feel smoother initially. Resistance changes with grease, but people don't care enough for resistance to open this expensive reel

Certate is a heavy aluminum reel, comparable to Twinpower, not Exsence. Daiwa doesn't have a reel like the exsense. Their reels are either aluminum for heavy duty, or carbon for finesse. This is on a magnesium frame, that is in between in terms of strength and weigth

Luvias airity and exist have magnesium body. I have a certate it is by far the smoothest reel I own, second is the Exsence , I own the model before the one in your review. The cI4 Exsence I had got geary after 2 years of light use, I got rid of it, it was really just a ci4+ Stradic with a couple of extra bearings and a different paint job. I played with the luvias airity in the shop I can confirm it is super smooth like certate just much lighter.

You have a serious reel fetish😋Btw, I can’t stand 2lb test line. That junk is coming off my reel. And, I love using a drop shot. I’m far more accurate casting. I’m way to lazy and sight impaired to tie 2lb that will not break at the hook.
