Daiwa's entry reel, but with the parts that matter: an ABS aluminum spool that takes braid without a mono backing, their Airdrive rotor, and a drag that gives line smoothly rather than in steps. Three bearings plus a roller is more than anything else at this money. Daiwa build and market this as a freshwater reel — they make no saltwater rating and no sealed-bearing claim, and neither will we.
