DAIWA 18 Tatula LT2500S-XH

The next generation spinning reel bearing the world standard "Tatula" brand has finally arrived in Japan. This bait reel was tested in America, the home of bass fishing, and released ahead of the rest of the world. It is a "world standard" spinning reel. The LT concept has been brushed up to specifications that allow you to enjoy bass fishing to the fullest. It is equipped with a large diameter drag knob, ATD, Tough Digigear, and a long cast ABS spool, condensing the basic performance. The airy handle rotation is comfortable.

ATD [Automatic Drag System]
A new generation drag system that smoothly follows the pull of the fish and continues to work. It starts off smoother than before, so it is less likely to break the line, and it is less likely to make the fish feel uncomfortable, so it is less likely to cause unnecessary violence. In addition, the unique stickiness of the operation reduces the chance of the fish running away all at once even at low drag settings, and the frequency of drag readjustment during the fight is reduced, allowing you to concentrate on the fight.

AIR ROTOR [Air Rotor]
An air rotor with a structure that can be called a rotor revolution. The unique shape of the optimal rim structure distributes the load, achieving a significant weight reduction with the same strength. The rotor balance has also been improved, achieving a light rotation with good response.

ZAION
A carbon resin with carbon fibers woven at high density, it is light, strong, and resistant to corrosion.
A material that makes the impossible possible, exceeding magnesium in terms of strength to weight. It is used in major parts such as the body and rotor, contributing to the realization of the contradiction of high rigidity and light weight.

TOUGH DIGIGEAR
A strong core is essential to withstand harsh environments. The "TOUGH DIGIGEAR" keeps the rotation smooth for longer.

DS5 (rotor material)
A fiber-reinforced special plastic for reels created using Daiwa's unique technology.

Cross Wrap
An important factor in reducing line trouble is accurate winding. "Cross Wrap" uses a twill winding method with a large winding angle to cross the line to prevent it from biting into the spool winding section or slipping. The reduction in line trouble is particularly noticeable when using thin lines or PE lines, and at the same time achieves a comfortable flight.

Air Veil
A veil shape that dramatically reduces line tangle trouble by sending the line to the line roller so that it flows. Furthermore, the hollow structure achieves a significant increase in strength without changing the weight.

Twist Buster II
By tapering the line roller and rolling the line, the structure significantly eliminates the line twist that occurs due to roller rotation, which was said to be the fate of spinning reels.

Line roller BB (1BB)
By installing a ball bearing in the line roller section, it contributes to further improving the rotation feeling and reducing line twist.

Rotor brake
By braking the rotor rotation when the bail is opened, it is a mechanism that prevents the bail from suddenly turning over due to the handle moving due to the shock when casting.
