If there is one fishing reel that personifies the diehard, TT Enthusiast, it is the Japanese market only, Daiwa Pixy. Since 2004 when we first wrote about this fabulous little finesse baitcaster from Daiwa Japan, the Pixy has been the subject of, or shared bi-lines with other reels in at least five separate articles. We’ve reviewed it solo, compared the Airy to the '04 Limited Yellow, sized it up against the Presso, and showed you our interpretation of the superttuned Pixzilla. Last year, we took a look inside the 2010 version of this reel, the PX68, but before we could bring you a comprehensive performance review, Daiwa Japan released yet another version, the PX68 SPR, earlier this year! It’s enough to makes us exclaim, “What the Finesse?!?” What is it about the Pixy that has Tackle Enthusiasts all over TT under such a spell? Well, we finally take a closer look at the PX68 to see if this pre-tuned Pixy carries forward, the magic of the original. What seemed like a sure move last year for Daiwa to really make some noise by bringing the PX68 to North American shores resulted in another conservative play overall, but in a slow economy who could really blame them. Leaks out of Daiwa's annual sales representative meetings are that there will be a Pixy-esque reel in Daiwa USA's lineup for 2012. If this is true, will Daiwa bring the reel over more or less as is, as they did with the Steez? Or will they make further adjustments as they did with the popular Alphas. Remember the Sol? It was a shadow of its JDM Counterpart. Regardless of whether or not the Pixy PX68 finally does officially land on US shores or not, this reel is a more than worthy successor to the original. Though still not a full fledged Pixzilla out of the box, most of the hard work is already done. The levelwind upgrade is the only remaining step to full blown transformation, but admittedly, not really one that is necessary either. The drag and retrieve ratio upgrades really increase this reel's utility while the marginally deeper, yet mostly still very shallow spool continue to restrict this reel to mostly lighter line applications although close quarter, heavy duty pitching duties are not out of the question. Of course, while everyone is debating the likelihood of the PX68 coming to US shores and what, if any, adjustments to this reel Daiwa will make to normalize it for the North American market, Daiwa Japan has already moved on with yet another version. The PX68 SPR is the current, new version of the Pixy and sports centrifugal instead of magnetic brakes. Any chance that this is the reel Daiwa has targeted for the US Market? How's that as food for thought? Well, in the meantime, back to the PX68. For a reel that is 85% superttuned out of the box, the PX68 wins our Ultimate Enthusiast Award! Congrats Daiwa!
