For the daiwa nuts, if you were gonna have one highend daiwa platform, would it be the classic td-ito or one of the zondas, specifically the hedgehog...

For me, it be an Alphas or PX form factor reel.

Something about the green Ito that speaks to me.

I know this thread kinda ran out. I found it by searching Pixy.

Would you prefer to buy a Pixy or spend less on a different reel and spend the difference super tuning it?

I need something for finesse that's not a spinning reel. I'm going to put it on a 2 power (medium light) 7'3" rod.

Zonda Hedgehog for sure for me, the Alphas is the only Daiwa reel I still own. I tried quite a few of Daiwa's high end reels some years back, TDZ, Pixy, Steez, and of course the Alphas. Every one of those reels were great, I probably fished my TDZ and Alphas the most. I put in a good amount of time with the Pixy as well though. After everything was said and done there was just something about the Alphas that set it apart from the others for me.  

 

I know this really doesn't help you all that much but the TDZ would be my second choice. I never had an ITO so I'm not exactly sure how much "better" it was than the TDZ but I know I've read tons of great things about them over the years.

Not sure I follow. Pixy type R? Some other type R? I got some Tatula type R, but not sure they meet my needs totally.

How do they compare to other $4-500 reels?

I mean how Pixy R compares to other options for $500?

I meant the pixy type r. I believe they can be bought for about $350 on fleabay.
