Branzino is a hybrid reel. It has the Certate, Exist and Saltiga parts all in one. The Saltiga is alot more of a heavy duty reel hence "Saltiga Game". The Branzino 3000 weighs 280grams to the saltiga 3500 390grams. Saltiga has 14 bearings and Branzino has 11. Same Drag rating, ratio pretty much the same too. Priced around the same. I have the branzino matched with the Salterwater Med/Heavy, used for bigger plastics. Both reels are awesome wich is better? i cant decide. Im saving up for the Dogfight! I just love Daiwa.
