Daiwa Tatula Elite SPINNING REEL
The ``TATULA'' brand, which was born in America, the home of bass fishing, and has been loved by many bassers in Japan and the United States, is celebrating its 10th anniversary. TATULA has been trained in actual battles and has evolved with its "monocoque body x AIRDRIVE DESIGN".
The ZAION V monocoque body, which is both light and strong, suppresses deflection and distortion even under load and assists in powerful winding. On the other hand, by installing a ZAION V air drive rotor, it achieves light unwinding due to low inertia. In addition, the drag uses ATD TYPE-L, which reduces the load on the line with smooth start and stable effectiveness. The synergy with the quick drag, which allows you to instantly adjust the tension with just a few knob turns, makes it possible to catch big fish quickly while enjoying the fight with bass even when using a light line.
The lineup includes the normal LT2500, which can be used for all-round use with power fishing in mind, and the FC (Finesse Custom) model, which was developed with a one-size compact body to improve finesse performance.
This TATULA leads the modern bass fishing scene where the field is becoming tougher.
*SLP W RCS handle and RCS handle knob (S) are replaceable.
*SLP W type α spool can be installed.

■AIRDRIVE DESIGN
Air Drive Design is a next-generation spinning reel design concept that allows anglers to manipulate the lure as they desire. The air drive design consists of up to four technologies. (23TATULA is equipped with AIRDRIVE ROTOR, AIRDRIVE BAIL, and AIRDRIVE SPOOL)
■AIRDRIVE ROTOR (made by ZAION V) "Reason for pursuing low inertia"
DAIWA continues to work on improving the rotational response of the spinning reel rotor. Based on its own theory, DAIWA has created a new shape that looks like it was cut directly from a sphere. By thoroughly removing unnecessary meat, we succeeded in significantly reducing weight while maintaining rigidity. This has dramatically improved the lightness of unwinding, leading to improved operability and sensitivity. In addition, the new shape and screw-free appearance improve line trouble-free performance and create an even more stress-free usability.
■AIRDRIVE BAIL "More trouble-free"
For many years, the air bail installed on DAIWA's spinning reel uses a hollow pipe structure that provides lightness and rigidity. In addition, the unique shape allows the line to be guided smoothly to the line roller, allowing for trouble-free unwinding. In order to further reduce weight, Air Drive Bale has been made smaller in diameter while maintaining the necessary strength. In addition, the slope is set to the optimal bail angle that allows the line to transition more smoothly from the bail to the line roller. It not only supports the performance of air drive rotors, but is also lighter and trouble-free.
■AIRDRIVE SPOOL "New design that reflects the future"
Based on careful strength calculations, unnecessary flesh has been thoroughly removed to achieve a thin wall design that is lightweight. No compromises have been made, not only in the thin wall design of the bobbin winding section and spool skirt section, but also in the thinning of the interior of the spool. The lighter spool improves ease of unwinding and ease of casting. Furthermore, we have newly developed a drag sounding mechanism with less operating resistance. Achieved improved response during drag operation.
■ZAION V monocoque body
Uses a ZAION V monocoque body that is both light and strong. The largest diameter Tough DigiGear is enclosed in a highly rigid, lightweight and compact housing.
■QD (Quick Drag)
A quick drag that allows you to instantly adjust the drag tension with just a few turns of the drag knob. Even when using a light line for bass fishing, you can quickly catch big fish with aggressive drag operation.
■TOUGH DIGIGEAR ``Precise engagement creates power''
The drive gear, the most important part of the reel, requires a trinity of elements (design concept, processing technology, gear material). 23TATULA is a further evolution of DigiGear II, adopting "Tough DigiGear" which provides smooth rotation for a longer period of time. The design concept carefully calculates the effects on the mesh caused by unexpected force. Achieving the ideal gear with high strength. It achieves infinitely noiseless rotation and accurately responds to the delicate sensations of anglers' fingertips.
■ATD TYPE-L "Followability is different"
ATD TYPE-L maintains the characteristics of ATD that continues to work smoothly according to the pull of the fish, but further improves the initial response of the spinning reel. Tuning has been done with a focus on the smooth start required when using a light line, further reducing the load on the line, and making it possible to land in a short time without putting excessive stress on the fish.
■LC-ABS (Long Cast-ABS) "Further Distance"
While maintaining the idea of reducing contact resistance of ABSII, smoother line release is achieved by bringing the contact point forward. The effect of the ring part being pushed forward makes it difficult for the line to ride on the ring, resulting in an approximately 5% increase in flight distance and trouble-free performance over conventional ABSII. This is the next generation ABS spool that truly realizes LC (=LONG CAST).
■Stopper-less body ``More lightweight and trouble-free''
The body structure has been simplified by removing the stopper. The decision to remove the stopper, which is a route for water and foreign matter to enter, not only reduces weight and improves waterproof performance, but also minimizes the unfortunate occurrence of sudden trouble when 23TATULA is used in harsh environments or when interacting with large objects. keep it to |
