Daiwa Exist G LT Spinning Reel

The future is in your hands.

The EXIST family features an EXIST Air Drive System with ZAION Air Drive Rotor, Air Drive Bail, Air Drive Spool, and Air Drive Shaft. Thanks to ZAION, the new EXIST Air Drive Rotor is 15% lighter, features a screwless design, flush surface, and greatly increased rigidity. The design eliminates design waste without reducing strength. But the largest benefit to the AIR DRIVE ROTOR is the lighter rotation providing you less handle turning resistance. Working in conjunction with the AIR DRIVE ROTOR is the AIR DRIVE SHAFT which offers better stability and power transfer; it also works with the rotor for smoother, easier rotations. It allows you to feel absolutely nothing when turning the handle—it could be the smoothest rotation in any spinning reel ever built. The Air Drive Bail is lighter and angled allowing seamless transition to the line roller. On to the Air Drive Spool, it's considerably lighter in weight than comparable reels. The new redesigned clicker in the spool reduces click resistance, creating smoother and much more efficient drag. The reel also offers Daiwa's Advanced Tournament (ATD) system for a maximum of 22 pounds of drag pressure in the 3000, 4000, and 5000 sizes. The 2000 and 2500 sizes offer 11 pounds of drag for light, feathery drag adjustment. The 2500 weighs 5.6 ounces and offers 34.5 inches per handle turn. The 3000 tips the scale at 6.2 ounces with 30.6 inches of line per handle turn. All hold a vast amount of monofilament or J-Braid for any technique the angler chooses to employ. The reel is available in interchangeable right- and left-handed versions in different gear ratios. All were designed to meet the needs and expectations of freshwater anglers fishing different presentations.
