Daiwa Steez CT SV TW 70XHL. Customer left it with me for a service. This is exactly what happens if you don’t take care of your magnesium gear in saltwater. No matter if it’s a ”saltwater safe” reel or not. All you need is one scratch.
Seen this on the Shimano Antares, Daiwa Steez and Abu Garcia Revo MGXtreme. Magnesium just doesn’t last well in the salt. It needs regular overhaul.
