Team DAIWA Match with Airdrive design – lighter, stronger and more responsive than ever.By incorporating the advanced Airdrive design, DAIWA has significantly upgraded the TDM Match & Feeder reels compared to previous generations. This refined engineering concept reduces overall weight while shifting the center of gravity from the front assembly toward the lower section of the reel. On the bank, this translates into superior balance and enhanced sensitivity – a key advantage for precision match and feeder fishing.The Airdrive rotor, paired with a redesigned bail arm, considerably reduces the risk of line wrapping and tangles around the bail. This ensures smoother line management and fewer interruptions, even in windy conditions or when fishing with thin braided lines.The rugged Tough Digigear system, featuring oversized gear teeth, delivers exceptionally smooth rotation and optimal power transmission under load. This proves invaluable when retrieving a loaded cage feeder quickly or controlling powerful fish along weeded margins. The gear system is securely mounted in a torque-resistant aluminum reel body for maximum durability.The fast-fold handle is fitted with an ergonomic EVA knob, offering excellent grip and control even with wet hands. Equipped with a precise QD (Quick Drag) system for instant drag adjustment during the fight.
