DAIWA 17 Gekkabijin EX 2004C

Designed to As The High End Model of Gekka Bijin as this is designed to one of their high end model for small game fishing, this has Mag Sealed, which is the DAIWA’s waterproof technology, and Mag Sealed ball bearing so that the reel can be highly protected from salt water use.

This spinning reel also has new Zaion Air Rotor, which is also DAIWA’s very light but strong rotor that makes light reeling with light weight, and also gives you very sensitive feedback from your lures.

ATD – Automatic Tournament Drag system is also installed to this spinning reel. This ATD system controls the strength of drag depending on the line tension, and the starting of the drag is smoother than old types, therefore hooking off of the first bite can be less.

The body is also made by Zaion, that the DAIWA’s strong but light material. And the body colouring is also interesting, not as the other Gekka Bijin, but this has light wine red colour for whole body with light metallic silver spool.

1003 is the usual 1000 class-size reel for normal ajing. 1003RH is a bit different model, which has 1000 class rotor with bigger and tougher body for long casting ajing, and 2004C is the compact body with 2000 class rotor for light rock fish games.
