Daiwa 25 Gekkabijin XV is a rod specifically designed for light saltwater fishing, excelling in techniques like Aji Fishing (horse mackerel) and Mebaru Fishing (rockfish). Constructed with high-strength carbon fabric, it offers a balanced action that reduces power loss at all stages of fishing, from casting to fighting.

This rod makes controlling very light lures incredibly easy, allowing for precise casts even in challenging conditions. For the S models (70UL-S and 70L-S), the high-sensitivity Solid Tip carbon tip further amplifies perception, ensuring you feel even the most timid bites. Even with large fish, the Gekkabijin XV provides secure handling and optimal control, demonstrating surprising power reserves.

The Titanium oxide guides are optimally positioned to reduce line tangles, a crucial advantage for both night fishing and windy conditions. A screw-down reel seat ensures a secure hold, and an anti-slip EVA grip provides lasting comfort.

Daiwa Gekkabijin MX LT: Light, strong, and performing for ultra-light fishing

The Daiwa Gekkabijin MX LT reels are designed specifically for ultra-light fishing techniques, both in saltwater and freshwater. They combine lightness, strength, and high performance, offering anglers a pleasant and performing fishing experience.

DS4 body and rotor: Lightness and corrosion resistance
The body and rotor of the Gekkabijin MX LT reels are made of DS4, a carbon-based material that is light and corrosion-resistant. This particular construction makes them suitable for use in marine environments without the risk of damage caused by salt.

Magsealed technology: Total protection from the elements
Magsealed technology, one of Daiwa's innovations, protects the internal mechanics of the reel from dirt, water, and salt. A special membrane of magnetized oil prevents external elements from penetrating the reel's body, extending its lifespan and maintaining its performance over time.

Tough Digigear gears: Power and fluidity

The Tough Digigear gears, larger than normal, guarantee optimal power transfer and exceptional smoothness of rotation. The 7 ball bearings, one of which is a CRBB with anti-corrosion technology, contribute to making the reel smooth and reliable.

Long Cast ABS spool: Longer and more accurate casts
The Long Cast ABS aluminum spool is designed to reduce air friction during casting, allowing you to reach greater distances with precision. Its particular shape, with inclined upper edges, promotes line sliding and reduces the risk of tangles.

ATD drag: Smoother fights and total control
The ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag) drag offers precise and progressive adjustment, allowing anglers to manage fights with fish effectively and without fear of breaking the line. Its fluidity and responsiveness make it ideal for use with thin lines, typical of ultra-light techniques.

Other features:

Air Rotor in DS4 for greater lightness and sensitivity
Cross Wrap System for perfect line winding
Elegant and modern design

The Daiwa Gekkabijin MX LT reels are available in different sizes to suit different fishing needs. Technical specifications vary depending on the model chosen.

New shape Air Rotor is lightened drastically but strong therefore reeling can be very light and smooth. This also enhances sensitivity from any information under the water. New High-Grip I-Shape Finesse Knob is also featured, which is light weight and grips on your hand very well to ease controlling. Air Bail reduces line trouble at the line roller, and enhances its toughness with light weight by hollow structure.
