Cannot fault them Luke,
Cannot fault them Luke, I have the new 5000h and have given it a nice workout recently in Broome. Still havent needed its full potential however i now know i can rely on it if needed.
My next purchase will be the 3500 Saltiga and my reel range will be complete. Until something else is released.

jeremy, Daiwa Australia are not bringing in a 3500 model, they are only bringing in a 4000
They are selling for $1099, personaly i think it is alot better then the stella 5000 which is the same size but each to their own

I know and have found a japanese company online that will ship.

I dont know which part they are talking about, but linear rotation can mean when something rotates at the same speed. I.e. it doesnt get slow in one part and speed up on another.
Perhaps its about the spool oscillation.
Either way, whatever it is, its mostly marketing :p

Ive got the 4500 and they are an awesome reel!
Picked up a nice 6kg or so longtail off Cervantes on the weekend and it handled it beautifully.
The only bad part about it is that my mate Jarrad then got a 10kg longtail on my outfit 20mins later hahaha, spewin'
