Diawa changes the baitcaster game

Notice the line hole. When you go to cast the top of the reel pops up and as the line is coming off the reel back and forth the line is not forced through a small hole like on conventional baitcasters. Got to cast one at Bowie last week. I am impressed. The small notch at the bottom of the line guide allows the line to be level winded when reeling back in.
Ingenious design.
The're calling it the "T-WING"

It should cast further. I wonder how the backlash is?

My old man is a Diawa die hard, I've always been a Shimano fan. May have to check one out..

this seems like a retarded gimmick
do you suck at throwing a baitcaster or something?

Damn OB gets touchy talking about expensive gear.

That is not even their newest model. Zillion to debut at ICast.

I have a couple of those purdy red//black Daiwa reels.
First thing I had to do was replace the handles. Those offset paddles hit my knuckles when reeling.
Oh, and they aren't worth what they cost. I use 'em, but much prefer my Calcuttas.
