Both are the same size. Go with the Calcutta.

Truthfully, each are very good reels. It's not like choosing between blondes, brunettes or redheads... Just stay away from 6500's, unless you don't mind paying lots of $$ for maintenance and repairs.

Ben,
Both have what is called a recessed reel foot.The reel kinds fits over the blank, thus making it easier to palm.The Daiwa perhaps a bit more than a CT.Both quality reels.Although I fish Shimano, the CVZ is a fine piece of equipment.Better get 2! Steve

I have 2 cte 400 and recently bought a cvz300. It seems to be a bit wider than the cte and I don't want to buy another cte. So I thought I might return the diawa for a normal 400 if the 400 was smaller. If they are the same size I will keep it as I like the higher gear ratio...thanks for the help...Ben
