The Daiwa Japan website now has the 5000 and 6000 size Certate SW's listed. Hopefully they will make a 5000 and 6000 in the Saltiga as well??

And hopefully these Certate SW 5000 and 6000 models will be available in the US

When you say they feel different is it that the Saltiga is smoother and feels stronger than the Certate?

OK thanks good to know. It's interesting where they put the price range of the Certate SW. If there's a big difference in performance the Saltiga is again a better option.

Bought another TP in the 6000 size. Was going back and forth in my head between the TP and Certate but ultimately i went with the TP. The "click" feel when opening the bail on the TP is more to my liking. Especially when you make you make 200+ casts from the shore in a single outing like i do. Another think i like about the TP is the connection between the handle and reel. The TP has a cover which i assume helps keeps water intrusion out.

Do you see any difference in length of your casts between the reels?
