About this piece
Designed with the philosophy 'Keep It Strong, Stay Smooth,' the Daiwa 21 Basara 200 is a saltwater baitcasting reel that merges raw power with ultra-smooth rotation. It incorporates next-generation technologies to maintain performance over time, even under harsh conditions. At just 310g with a maximum drag of 7kg and a line retrieve of 71cm per turn, it balances lightweight handling with formidable cranking strength.
Key features
- HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR delivers strong, smooth rotation that lasts, thanks to optimized gear tooth engagement without reducing tooth size.
- HYPER DOUBLE SUPPORT rigidly secures the pinion gear with dual ball bearings, enhancing cranking efficiency under heavy load.
- HYPER ARMED HOUSING employs a metal frame and precision construction for exceptional rigidity and enduring reel stability.
- HYPER TOUGH CLUTCH offers crisp engagement with a 99% reduction in sticking issues in high-salinity environments.
- Magsealed Ball Bearing at the side plate pinion support blocks water and debris, dramatically boosting corrosion resistance.
- ATD (Advanced Tournament Drag) provides silky-smooth, consistent drag pressure that reduces fading during prolonged fights.
Best for
- Inshore and offshore jigging targeting species like yellowtail, amberjack, and grouper.
- Saltwater casting applications where reliable drag and long-term durability are critical.
- Anglers who need a compact, powerful reel for heavy PE line (2-3 gou) and prolonged battles.
