Anything to look for 2021 releases?

Post by Sebb » Wed Aug 18, 2021 2:00 pm

Shimano Au had announced their new 2021 products, Penn too, I think Okuma and TT also had done it. TT released three rod models, didn't they. Daiwa is doing it tomorrow.

The Shimano Tcurve premium is a new JDM model I think and Blue Roamance are new to Au.

Anything you guys look forward to see/feel/hold/buy?

Daiwa Au might release Blazon to compete with Shimano Zodias.

Yup, I'm expecting Blazon rod to be released here in Au. Not sure what else they'll bring from Japan.
You prepared to get some shiny new Daiwa stuff?
I might get Blazon rod.

I've only really looked at what shimano has released so far, not too interested in other brands except daiwa which has some stuff coming tomorrow I'm looking forward to getting.

From shimano I quite like the look of the new bantam lures they are bringing in from japan and that their flash boost jigs come in a 3.5 size now although I don't really need more squid jigs.

Sebb the tcurve is an aus range of rods. The poison adrena is a jdm bass model they have started bringing in which is a bit more upmarket than a zodias. I was having a snoop around at some jdm rods and saw that there is a zodias travel rod series just being released in japan so will be interesting to see if some of those models make their way over here.

Maz is on it. The tcurve premium is aus only and basically a slightly downspec Poison Adrena to fit between the zodias and pa. Blue Romance has been around for a fair while already

Revelry reel looks like 17 Gekkabijin EX.
The new Caldia looks good. The new TD Black 2500 is only 170gm.
