Tyrnos 12

<< < (2/2)

Ian Young:
Does the Tyrnos 12 have instant anti-reverse?

Cheers

Rohit Saqa Lal:
The catalogue lists it as an alternating twin pawl anit reverse. There is buggerall backplay though. Could this cause an issue that I hadnt thought of yet? Was drooling over a 197, 30Z and TS16N today looking for a higher end reel for the next purchase incase the tyrnos didnt handle as nicely as I expected. The TS16N is lovely but an iffy  colour. I do like the look of the 30Z though. Both are similar price range. Heres to hoping the tyrnos works a charm and I can save my money to spend on a CTE200DC that I fall in love with  ;D . Be wicked for a planned barra trip

Hi Rohit. Considered an Ocea Jigger?
I just got a 5000P with a Valley Hill Mogi Special rod. Easy to jig with. The Torsa runs a 5.8 to 1 retrieve so you may find it tiring.
My mate has a Torsa 30 on a Mogi Special and I tell you what, I am glad I bought the Ocea as it is a lot easier to work. The Torsa feels bullet proof though but then so does the Ocea.
Cheaper reel award in my opinion goes to the Saltist. My 50 has lasted 3 years without a hiccup and caught everything from coral trout to wahoo. Never missed a beat and still runs the original drag. Bought myself a Saltist 30T last week as a back up. Can't go wrong I reckon.

MikeOsborn:
are you going to change out the tiny handle on that tyrnos12?
