Daiwa 26 Tournament Basia Surf 45 SCW QD Reel

Description

The Daiwa 26 Tournament Basia Surf 45 SCW QD Reel is engineered for modern surfcasting, representing a pinnacle of technological research in big pit reel development. Designed to maximise casting distance, this reel offers a refined user feel and improved balance. It is ideal for demanding surf fishing from shore, providing smooth operation, corrosion resistance, and high line retrieval efficiency for anglers seeking long and precise casts with reliable drag and superior line control. The reel features a significantly enlarged spool and rotor, incorporating Daiwa's new AIRDRIVE design for the rotor, which is inspired by a sphere to maximise strength and minimise rotational inertia. This results in exceptional smoothness and lightness, with both the body and rotor constructed from ZAION, a unique Daiwa carbon composite that provides metal-like structural rigidity while remaining extremely lightweight. The smoothness is further enhanced by 11 bearings, and the recovery power has been upgraded to a maximum drag of 15 kg.
