・Rugged and sturdy. This machine-cut stonefish reel features a MagShield.
・40: A power-focused reel for long-distance casting and stationary fishing.
・MagShield: Daiwa's unique waterproof structure creates a magnetic oil barrier to shut out seawater and dust, maintaining the reel's light, smooth initial rotation for extended periods. This technology is applied to the ball bearings themselves, which are crucial for rotation performance, to create the "MagShield Ball Bearing" in the main shaft. Waterproofing, durability, and rotation performance have been further improved.
・ATD: A next-generation drag system that continues to work while smoothly following the pull of the fish. It starts off smoother than previous models, making it less likely to break the line, and is less likely to cause the fish to thrash around unnecessarily, resulting in less discomfort. It can easily handle sudden thrusts, allowing you to fight even larger fish without worry.
・Vertical IC counter: Equipped with an IC counter that is convenient for checking water depth.
・Machine-cut drive gear: Ultra-precise machine-cut technology maximizes the strengths of the gear material, resulting in silky, torqueful rotation performance.
・Click mechanism: A mechanism that emits a click when the line is released.
・Centrifugal brake: The centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the spool acts on the brake shoe, applying the brake through the friction generated between the shoe and the outer brake ring.
・Line stopper: A line stopper with a rubber ring is installed at the base of the clutch lever. Compatible with nylon up to No. 26, it prevents the tip line from crossing the bottom line when carrying the reel, and is convenient when you need to stop for a moment, such as when changing bait.
This is Daiwa's top-of-the-line stonefish reel, boasting powerful and precise winding. Its high gear ratio of 5.9 is advantageous for quicker retrieval after long-distance casting. The forged handle arm and forged star drag enable powerful winding even when catching large fish. Daiwa's proprietary waterproof and durable MagShield ball bearing technology keeps out seawater and foreign objects, ensuring initial performance is maintained for long periods even in harsh environments exposed to sea spray and sea breezes. The drag is equipped with the acclaimed next-generation drag system, ATD (Automatic Drag System), which continuously works smoothly in response to the pull of the fish. This stonefish-specific model truly deserves the description "sturdiness and durability.
