New Braid + Gomexus Emeraldas Handle

[Andrews]

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share two upgrades to my Daiwa 19 Emeraldas LT reel, which is the one that I'm always rocking while chasing calamari.
This reel has a sweet spot in my heart, as it's sentimental. It was my first proper reel that I personally owned, and it's been there from EGI beginner to the experience I have now.
Full disclosure, Gomexus sent me out this package to promote & review, braid was purchased with my own coin.

Gomexus did me a solid and sent out this pretty incredible package to celebrate the launch of their 'Emeraldas' styled double handle.

So to match that I decided to head over to Mario's for some new braid, oh and check out the squid jigs while they did it. They've got a solid range, this was the first of two sections with some limited JDM jigs. (not paid to say this, just appreciate a local shop doing it right haha!)

I went with the Daiwa Saltiga braid, #0.8pe 16lb after a few mates recommended it.

Shiny! Very nice.

Thanks Sebb, keen to see how this braid goes, but the whole multicolour design has me pretty hyped.
Had a few mates rate it, so we will see if the squid like it.
