Daiwa Sensor Surf 45 SCW QD Reel
Product Description
The Daiwa Sensor Surf 45 SCW QD is a high-performance surfcasting reel engineered for anglers seeking exceptional casting distance and precision. This reel is specifically designed to excel in challenging land-based fishing conditions, making it an ideal choice for New Zealand's diverse coastal environments. It features a 45mm ultra-long cast spool and Daiwa's innovative Slow Cross Wrap (SCW) system, which together ensure impeccable line lay and minimal friction during casting, translating to longer, smoother casts.
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Reel Weight | 605gm |
| Max Drag | 15kg |
| Gear Ratio | 4.9:1 |
| Bearings | 6+1 |
| Line Retrieve | 104cm per crank |
| Mono Line Capacity | 14lb/530m |
Key Features:
- 45mm Long Cast Spool: The tall, extended-stroke spool profile is engineered to allow fishing line to discharge with minimal resistance, significantly increasing casting distance for surfcasting and other long-range fishing applications.
- Slow Cross Wrap (SCW): This advanced oscillation system layers the line slowly and precisely, preventing it from digging into itself under pressure. This improves line release for smoother, longer casts and reduces tangles.
- MagSealed Body: Utilising a special magnetic oil, this technology creates a protective barrier that seals the reel's internal gears from salt, sand, and water ingress—essential for enhanced longevity and reliable performance in harsh surf environments.
- ZAION V Body & Rotor: Constructed from a high-tech carbon composite material, the ZAION V body and rotor are both lighter and stronger than standard graphite. This design contributes to a lighter reel, reducing angler fatigue during long fishing sessions.
- Quick Drag (QD): The Quick Drag system allows for rapid adjustment from a "free spool" setting to "maximum drag" with just a half-turn of the drag knob, providing instant and precise control when battling powerful fish.
- Air Rotor: The Air Rotor design is lighter and stronger than conventional rotors, providing a smoother rotation and reducing inertia, which enhances winding comfort and sensitivity.
- Air Bail: A hollow, tubular stainless steel bail arm that is lighter, stronger, and more rigid than solid wire bails, ensuring flawless line flow to the line roller.
- Digigear II: Precision-cut and digitally designed gearing ensures optimal meshing between the drive gear and pinion gear, resulting in ultra-smooth, powerful, and durable winding performance.
