Overview
The Daiwa Tanacom 1200AJ electric reel, paired with the Tanacom 56BT 5'6" PE 6-10 bent-butt rod, forms a purpose-built deep-drop combo. This balanced outfit is meticulously engineered for anglers targeting extreme deep-water species. By combining the reel's increased winding power with the rod's massive lifting leverage, this system is designed for bottom-fishing trenches and retrieving substantial catches from depths exceeding 300 to 1,000 metres.
- Power & Efficiency: The Tanacom 1200AJ's in-spool motor design maximises drivetrain efficiency, reduces torque loss, and offers 20% more winding power and 30% faster retrieval speeds. This innovative design also ensures 50% quieter operation and improved water sealing.
- Deep-Water Capability: The reel holds a full 1,000m of PE8 braid, providing extensive depth range for fishing deep ocean structures and canyons.
- Control & Drag System: The Tanacom 1200AJ features a sealed Automatic Tournament Drag (ATD) system with 25kg of maximum drag pressure, managed by an ergonomic aluminium power lever. This system works in synergy with the rod's forgiving action to prevent pulled hooks.
- Rod Leverage & Durability: The Tanacom 56BT rod's extra-heavy action and solid integrated glass tip absorb heavy loads, while its composite graphite blank delivers exceptional lifting strength and sensitivity. The bent butt design optimises secure placement in boat rod holders, enhancing leverage and fighting comfort.
- Robust Hardware: The Tanacom 56BT rod is outfitted with heavy-duty SeaGuide stainless steel frame guides, built to withstand repeated deep drops and corrosive saltwater.
- Angler Comfort: The rod features a comfortable EVA foregrip with an X-wrap for a secure, non-slip hold during intense battles.
- User-Friendly Display: The Tanacom 1200AJ's upgraded Dot Monitor LCD offers high visibility, simplified English menu programming, and better viewing angles, even with polarised sunglasses.
