2020 year model

The highly anticipated flagship model of the STEEZ series, exclusively designed for bait finesse fishing. This exceptional baitcasting reel features an ultra-small diameter φ28mm G1 Duralumin AIR spool, providing the ultimate finesse fishing experience. Unlike previous bait finesse models, the ultra-small diameter spool enhances the ability to handle lighter lures and revolutionizes the concept of finesse fishing.

With the innovative TWS system, this reel maximizes the performance of the spool, even at ultra-high speeds. Its compact body also offers the advantage of its own weight, further elevating its capabilities. The combination of advanced technology and sleek design truly sets a new standard for bait finesse machines, and marks a new chapter in the history of fishing. Experience finesse fishing like never before with the STEEZ flagship model.

AIR SPOOL

Mastering finesse performance
AIR spool specially designed for finesse fishing
Equipped with an ultra-lightweight micro BB to accommodate ultra-lightweight lures

G1 DURALMIN GEAR

The G1 duralumin drive gear, which has supported the spool technology of DAIWA baitcasting reels, has been adopted as the gear. This improves durability and ensures a smooth winding feel that lasts for a long time.

AIR METAL

The lightness of magnesium
Lightness is the by-word of all reels made from this light and sensitive material, which is coated with an anti-corrosion treatment specially developed by Daiwa.

AIR BRAKE SYSTEM

This spool braking system radically improves winding performance and casting accuracy while minising the risk of spool tangles. The spool has had its weight minimised to optimise the magnetic braking system and to allow accurate pitching as well as heavier duty casts to long distance.

TWS

The TWS T-Wing System solves an age old problem with level wind systems. The normal change of angle of from spool to line guide retards line release and slows the casting momentum of the lure. With TWS, when engaged for casting, the line guide drops to expose the "T" aperture of T-Wing. This allows line to flow freely through the wide top section on outcast, reducing the normally sharp angles and resulting friction that slow line flowing through a standard narrow aperture. For retrieve, the line guide, now in the original position, controls the line drops via the narrow, lower channel of the T-Wing. This delivers even distribution across the spool width.
