DAIWA 23 Emeraldas RX LT2500-XH-DH

For those who are fascinated by the mysterious emerald-colored gaze of the Bigfin Reef Squid. With its emerald green eyes, it fascinates people. In the early days when night games were the norm, DAIWA launched the world's first brand dedicated to egging, "Emeraldas". Revolutionary rods, reels that can mainly handle PE lines, and original egging jigs. All of these were new, and their newness established the genre of daytime egging. At the root of it all is commitment. The DAIWA development team and the charismatic testers that DAIWA is proud of, these diverse characters stoically face egging and constantly pursue evolution. We will delve into the ease and depth of egging, the charms that seem to be contradictory. To meet the emerald.

23EMERALDAS RX with improved operability thanks to AIRDRIVE DESIGN
The high level of operability provided by AIRDRIVE DESIGN is a great advantage for egging, which involves repeated reeling and jerking.

Based on Daiwa's reel design philosophy that "lightness without sufficient fishing performance is meaningless," there is no compromise on strength. The MQ body made of ZAION V ensures "strength." It is designed to be used safely even for egging, which places a heavy load on the reel. Equipped with Tough Digigear that produces smooth and quiet rotation and Mag Sealed, Daiwa's original waterproof and durable technology. Supports stress-free fishing by maintaining initial performance.

The drag uses ATD TYPE-L. By improving the initial response of the drag, tracking has been greatly improved. It greatly reduces the number of missed catches and line breaks, allowing you to face unexpected large aori with confidence. The normal LT2500 model, an all-round model that can be used throughout the season, is highly rigid and torqueful for winding. The FC model 2500 is designed specifically for the autumn fishing season when you can use finer 2.5 to 3.0 size egi and run around shallow areas to catch lots of fish. By adopting a body that is one size smaller, we have achieved an overwhelming weight reduction, which contributes to improved operability.

AIRDRIVE DESIGN
Air Drive Design is a next-generation spinning reel design concept that pursues the angler's desire to control the lure as they wish. Air Drive Design is composed of up to four technologies. The prerequisite is the installation of an Air Drive Rotor that produces light winding and high-response rotation, a lightweight and trouble-free Air Drive Bail, a thin-walled Air Drive Spool that has been designed to reduce weight by removing unnecessary material to the limit, and an Air Drive Shaft that supports the main shaft with a high-precision collar and has a non-contact structure with the pinion gear, allowing for light winding with extremely little rotation noise even under high load. The synergistic effect of these and the improvement of the weight balance of the reel achieve a high level of operability.
* 23EMERALDAS RX is equipped with AIRDRIVE ROTOR, AIRDRIVE BAIL, and AIRDRIVE SPOOL.

ZAION V
To make reels lighter and stronger, the carbon hybrid resin developed for this purpose is Zion V. By precisely controlling the amount of carbon used in the hybrid, we have achieved a lighter weight than metal and a high level of strength comparable to metal, while also giving it versatility that allows it to be mounted on many reels. It inherits the essence of Zion, which can be said to be the maximum spec of carbon hybrid resin.

AIR DRIVE ROTOR
Using our unique theory, we have derived a new shape that looks as if it was cut out of a sphere, and by thoroughly removing unnecessary material, we have achieved a significant weight reduction while maintaining rigidity. This has resulted in a dramatic improvement in the lightness of the reel when unwinding, which leads to improved operability and sensitivity.

AIR DRIVE BAIL
The Air Veil has adopted a hollow pipe structure that provides rigidity and light weight, but in order to achieve further weight reduction, the diameter has been made smaller while maintaining the necessary strength. The veil angle is set to the optimum angle to allow the line to transition more smoothly from the veil to the line roller. This has made it even lighter and less troublesome.

AIR DRIVE SPOOL
A thin-walled design that eliminates unnecessary material and achieves weight reduction. The thin-walled design of the spool skirt and the hollowing out of the inside of the spool are the key to weight reduction. The lighter spool improves ease of winding and casting. In addition, the drag sound mechanism with low operating resistance improves response when the drag is activated.

MAGSEALED
DAIWA's unique waterproof structure creates a wall of magnetic mag oil in the gap between the body and rotor, blocking out seawater, dust, and other elements.

TOUGH DIGIGEAR
To survive in harsh environments, a reel needs a strong heart. "Tough Digigear" keeps the rotation smooth for longer.

ATD TYPE-L
The ATD operates smoothly and continues to work smoothly in response to the pull of the fish. The ATD TYPE-L has improved initial response. It pursues smooth start and tracking, allowing you to concentrate on the fight without worrying about the drag setting.

LC-ABS (Long Cast ABS)
While keeping the idea of reducing the contact resistance of ABS II, the contact point has been moved forward to achieve smoother line release. The effect of the ring part moving forward makes it difficult for the line to get on the ring, which has resulted in an approximately 5% increase in distance and trouble-free performance over the conventional ABS II. This is the next generation ABS spool that achieves LC (= LONG CAST).

Stopperless body "Even lighter and more trouble-free"
The body structure has been simplified by removing the stopper. The decision to remove the stopper, which is a route through which water and foreign objects can get in, not only reduces weight and improves waterproof performance, but also minimizes the risk of sudden trouble in harsh environments or when dealing with large fish.

Perfect Line Stopper
A new shape of line stopper that is compatible with thin lines such as PE and thick lines such as leaders. The horizontal shape saves vertical space and contributes to reducing the weight of the spool.

Power round type EVA knob
Adopted "Power Round Type EVA Knob" that is best for egging.
Easy to grip and non-slip EVA specification. Adopted black EVA material, so even if it gets dirty with squid ink, it is hard to notice dirt.
