Daiwa Alphas Clicker Conversion
In this video I am going show how to upgrade drag star with micro-adjustment clicker on a standard Daiwa Alphas. It's same as Pixy to Pixilla.
Parts needed are:
1. Micro drag star clicker set, and
2. Drag star knob
Make sure you get correct left/right Clicker set and Drag Star.
It won't work on Alphas 150H. Alphas 150H is JDM version of the Daiwa Advantage.
All parts are from The Tackle Trap (tackletrap.com)
Thank you.

Now you could put pure ceramic ABEC9 in spool and there's a company modifying the outboard end of drive shafts to include a ball bearing there as well. It makes you think that people entering casting competitions totally removing the level wind system and the centrifugal brake entirely. Good video that allows you to see what's possible.
