I sat on that very box and wiggled them , I’m a daiwa man of umpteen years and I bought the X75 . I’ve now got three Preston poles . Fished with the 75 and will fish with it tomorrow and it’s superb

Was tempted to get the X75 but went for the G90 pro, Only thing that swayed me was the reports of waiting times on spare sections should the worst happen for Preston poles. Got my G90 pro and the No4 was split of the 4th, was a manufacturer fault and I had the replacement within a week so was happy with Daiwa’s service

The thing with the Daiwa is spares are easy, and resale values are higher. I’d always stick with UK made Daiwa
@fivecylinderperfection5060Ай бұрын
I went for the G90 Pro and very happy with it. I fitted the genuine Daiwa PTFE nose cones to all the sections and it seems to stiffen the pole a little more. But add a short number 4 and use the dolly butt to compensate the length difference and it makes the pole amazingly stiff and superbly balanced.
@britishbluetessАй бұрын
Should it need a short 4 though?
@fivecylinderperfection5060Ай бұрын
@@britishbluetess It doesn't really need one, but adding the short 4 it just takes it up another notch or two in performance. If you put the G90 Pro next to an Airty Pro (as I did) you wont be able to justify the extra £1700 difference in price. And that's without the short number 4 added.
@leeoloughlin924929 күн бұрын
Just a few small things to note. The x75 comes with 9 topkits and a cupping kit ie 2 match, 2 f1, 2 short grey and 3 carp. if you get the diawa you only get 6 plus cupping ,unless you get the f1 package. i managed to get x75 on a black fiday deal with 15% off so it was 1699. So to me its a no brainer. I have fished with it and its strong enough for carp in my eyes. i was told many many years ago its the angler which breaks poles and not the fish and have found this to be true. Change how you handle a pole and find the one that suits you best :D

I asked my local tackle shop. All 7 of them said G90 Pro. Had Preston poles prior to purchasing a G90 pro. Glad I made that switch. Each to their own though.

Very interesting, I was going to buy the X75 , but being Jammy i won a G90 pro on the Capital catch competition. So obviously didn't buy the X 75 , The G90 pro is awsome and I am mega happy with it , I have friend who has the x75 and loves it , so for the money either are a great buy . The diawa pullers are pants tho and have changed all mine to preston so there is plus to.preston on the top kits . But spare DWA fit the Daiwa anyway ! Spares are a plenty for the Daiwa as well . I love fishing with the 90 and can't fault it 😊

Imo daiwa poles are poor compared to their rivals, apart from the air z pro. The daiwa are always shorter, the pullers are crap and they are always not as stiff or light as their rivals. Only advantage is the spares availability

Blatant Diawa bias or what ! So the less ridged floppier pole is still better in action of the more ridged Preston pole ?? This so called test negates every other pole review conclusion since poles came out ! Ie…the less responsive softer action pole is better than the stiffer more responsive pole Go figure …!
