Daiwa 20 Crosscast 45 Spin Reel

Get the edge in ultra-long-distance surfcasting with the 20 CROSSCAST SURF 45, a 45mm stroke long-distance reel designed to maximise distance to gain access to untouched areas when fishing from shore.

It all revolves around the long-stroke spool, featuring a 2-degree front-facing taper to allow line to fly off with ease. The long-stroke design minimises changes in direction for line flowing off the spool. Combine that with Daiwa’s new Slow Cross Wrap Oscillation system which evenly distributes the line more closely packed to itself up and down the spool, resulting in improved casting distance across the board.

A sturdy carbon composite body houses a DIGIGEAR II design drive, digitally designed and manufactured to exact tolerances to produce a reel which is smooth and strong. 20 CROSSCAST SURF is perfectly matched to any one of Daiwa’s large range of surf rods and will be a big hit for anglers who like to keep two feet on solid ground.

 

Features

• Slow cross wrap line management
• ATD-Drag – Daiwa’s Automatic Tournament Drag uses an improved drag grease that exhibits a low viscosity at rest, yet becomes more viscous immediately after drag start up. This reduces initial drag start-up inertia and combined with the structural changes of the ATD Drag System results in a smoother drag from the initial hook up.
• Digigear-II – More refined and precision designed than Digigear I, Digigear II involves a high precision machine cut and digitally design gears and feature a surface treated ultra-tough alloy drive gear and marine bronze pinion gear, designed to mesh together perfectly for optimised speed, power and durability.
• Infinite Anti-Reverse – Daiwa’s advanced system that limits rearward backplay handle movement to almost zero for solid hooksets with less shock to the reel. The result is the elimination of handle slap-back and the unwanted release of line.
• Silent Oscillation – Silent Oscillation combines Digigear drive technology with dampening washes for noise free operation. Increased durability, and a reduction in reel noise are all achieved with Silent Oscillation.
