Daiwa Emcast Bite N' Run LT Spinning Fishing Reel
The Daiwa Emcast Bite N' Run feature allows line to pay off the reel when a gamefish takes a live or natural bait. Once line is paying off the reel, the refined Auto Clutch will put the reel in gear, allowing a solid hook set. It is much more controlled than simply opening up the bail, which is the traditional method used when fishing natural baits with spinning reels. The reel sizes vary from a 2500 Series to a 5000 Series, making the versatile reel line suitable for many different applications in many different fisheries. The reel designs are in the LT Concept of light yet tough. The Carbon Light Body is substantially lighter, yet just as strong as traditional materials. To further the concept, the Air Rotor is also lighter yet just as strong. A slick machined aluminum handle is powerful yet comfortable to the hand. When a gamefish is taking a bait offering and the reel is put in gear, the ATD (Advanced Tournament Drag System) utilizing a proprietary grease allows the smooth payoff of line no matter how long the run. A 5.2:1 gear ratio shades the reel toward pulling power.
