Title: Stella SW vs Daiwa Saltiga
Post by: Johan de Vlieger on May 06, 2010, 06:15:08 PM: Hello Guys,

I've read in previous posts that there are still many questions regarding the qualities of both the new Stella SW and the Daïwa Saltiga.
Now I discovered an amazing review in a forum by a guy called Alan Hawk.
It's simply the most detailled and well written review I have ever encountered. Enjoy !!!

It's a manual trip bail so that it does not accidentally close from the force of the cast.
