Equipped with MAGSEALED technology, this is the standard model for cage and long-distance casting reels.

Featuring Daiwa’s innovative waterproof and durable MAGSEALED technology, this reel is designed for long-distance casting, where toughness is essential. The Air Rotor ensures smooth rotation and enhances winding efficiency, making long-distance casting more comfortable. It also features a 35mm stroke aluminum spool, known for its exceptional casting performance.

By combining power with long-distance casting capabilities, this reel is versatile and suitable for various fishing targets using cage or iso casting techniques. Additionally, it is equipped with Air Bail, Cross Wrap, and TWIST BUSTER II, minimizing line trouble. The 85mm handle is designed for easy winding, even when casting over long distances.

Key Features & Daiwa Technology

MAGSEALED
Daiwa’s unique waterproof structure uses a magnetic oil barrier between the body and rotor, preventing seawater, dust, and other elements from entering.

AIR ROTOR
Its uniquely arched shape distributes load evenly, reducing weight while maintaining strength. Improved rotor balance results in a lighter, more responsive rotation.

QUICK DRAG (4000QD & 6000QD only)
Allows instant drag adjustments with just a few turns of the knob, adapting to different line types, tackle setups, and fishing techniques.

DIGIGEAR / DIGIGEAR II
Digitally optimized drive gear tooth surfaces provide enhanced strength and ultra-smooth rotation, achieving ideal performance.

CROSS WRAP
A special twill winding technique reduces line issues, such as tangling in the spool or slipping out of place. This is especially effective for thin threads and PE lines, ensuring smoother casts.

AIR BAIL
A hollow yet highly durable bail arm with a smooth shape that guides the line efficiently, minimizing tangles and snags.

TWIST BUSTER II
A tapered line roller that offsets twist caused by rotor movement, significantly reducing line twisting—a common issue with spinning reels.
