DAIWA Kyohga 100SHL

Hairtails fascinate anglers with their silvery, sword-like appearance, dragon-like face, elusive lifestyle, and powerful fighting style that belies their slender appearance. Daiwa has conducted repeated field tests across the country, thoroughly analyzing their feeding behavior and catching patterns. While incorporating the opinions of famous captains and key people from around the country, the company has pursued "hairtail tackle that catches fish" that will produce results in actual battles. The fruit of this trial and error is Daiwa's brand dedicated to hairtails, "Kyouga." It is a one-of-a-kind brand that completely conquers the ever-changing hairtails with tackle that is constantly evolving.

This special model is for enjoying the best battle with the tough hairtail, a target that excites offshore jigging fans. The 7.3 gear ratio is designed to provide a fast winding speed and minimize line slack, preventing the line from being bitten off. At the moment of the "thud" when the hairtail is hooked, the next-generation drag system "ATD" solves the problem of the drag slipping and not being able to hook the line if the drag setting is too loose with the conventional drag. Once hooked, the Hyper Digigear and high rigidity body allow you to reel it in with confidence. In addition, a clicking sound is activated when a large bite occurs, and the excitement of the angler reaches its peak. The pinion gear is equipped with Daiwa's waterproof and durable technology "Mag Shield Ball Bearing", which prevents salt from sticking and maintains the initial rotation performance without any blind spots. The vivid purple design creates a striking personality on the boat with the synergistic effect with the rods of the same series.

Mag Sealed
Daiwa's unique waterproof structure shuts out seawater and dust by creating a magnetic oil wall, and maintains the light and smooth initial rotation performance for a long time. This technology is applied to the ball bearing itself, which is the key to rotation performance, and the "Mag Sealed Ball Bearing" is installed in the pinion gear section. Waterproofing, durability, and rotation performance have been further improved.

ATD
A new generation drag system that continues to work while smoothly following the pull of the fish. 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. It can easily withstand the strong thrusts of hairtail fish, and you can deal with large opponents without worry.

Centrifugal brake
The centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the spool acts on the brake shoe, and the friction generated between the shoe and the brake ring on the outer periphery applies the brakes. Suitable for light casting.

Super high-rigidity, high-precision machine-cut super metal housing
By applying a unique ultra-precise machine cut to the ultra-high-rigidity super metal housing, the gear system built inside is driven ideally.
The silky rotation feeling is the result of assembly technology on the micron order.

Super metal frame
The frame is made of super metal (high-strength aluminum), which has high rigidity against twisting during reeling, reducing power loss and enabling powerful winding.

Tough Digigear (hyper specification)
A gear system that maintains torqueful and silky rotation performance by selecting a large diameter and high-durability materials with a tooth surface precision 10 times that of conventional digigears. Ultra-advanced machine-cut technology maximizes the advantages of the material, and smooth rotation and initial performance last for an amazingly long time.

Speed Shaft
When the spool is free, the spool and shaft are separated, and the spool is supported only by the bottom bracket. The shaftless design eliminates excess resistance, resulting in ideal spool rotation.

Tough & Rigid Clutch System
A precise and durable clutch system.

Salt Barrier Tough Clutch
An anti-electrostatic clutch system that prevents clutch malfunction caused by salt buildup when used in the ocean.

Large Diameter Mechanical Brake Knob with Click
A large, easy-to-operate mechanical brake knob with a click sound that makes it easy to grasp the degree of adjustment.

Synchro Level Wind
A system that provides smoother drop and drag performance by linking the release of the line and the level wind movement when the spool is free or the drag is activated.

Large Diameter & Long Arm Star Drag
Easy-to-use large diameter & long arm specifications.

Drag Adjustment/Pull-out Click
A structure that emits a click sound when adjusting the drag or when a fish runs and the drag is activated.

Perfect Double Stopper
In addition to the normal stopper, it is equipped with a mechanical stopper. It has high durability, and in the unlikely event that the infinite stopper does not work, another mechanical stopper will work to prevent reverse rotation as a safety feature.

Power Light L Knob
Equipped with a large L-size knob made of non-slip EVA and a shape that allows for a firm grip.

Spool diameter
36mm

CRBB number/total BB number
6/6 (including Magshield ball bearings)

Shower washable
Can be washed with running water. (After cleaning, maintenance according to the instruction manual is required)
