Kevinator1 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 I still have some older Daiwa Graphite Baitcasters that I have had put away for awhile. I broke out a couple the other day and fished with them, pitching creature baits around cover....they still work pretty good....no instant anti reverse but these things still cast really good and they are light because of the graphite. Do any of you guys use any of these anymore? Quote
tholmes Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 I use old shimano bantams I have a couple of Shimano Bantams from the late '80s that I break out and put through their paces every now and then. With 8lb. mono, they cast 1/4 oz. cranks amazingly well. The only old Daiwa that I still have is a Millionaire 5H. No graphite there. Tom Quote
sparky241 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 I like my bantams but with 10&12lb line they don't cast to far Quote
Mumbly Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 I have a late 80's Shimano Bantam Black Magnum and a Bantam BeastMaster 2-speed that I might dust off. Wonder how they compare to my Curado's? Quote
