Daiwa Tournament Basiair Reel Features:
- AirMetal alloy body
- Infinite anti-reverse

- Stainless steel AirBail
Weighing in at a scant 445 grams, Daiwa's Tournament Basiair is truly a heavy hitter.
Created from a high-tech combination of Daiwa’s proprietary materials, the body of the Basiair has been constructed of AirMetal, a magnesium alloy. Lightening the package further still, the rotor is fashioned from Zaion, a tough, ultra-light carbon resin. In using these materials, Daiwa has built a reel that's both incredibly light and incredibly strong.
In addition to its already impressive construction, the Basiair is loaded with features that you would expect in a reel of this calibre. The ultra-long 45mm double anodised spool enables highly accurate long distance casting while the 4.1:1 gear ratio brings in just under a metre of line with every turn of the handle. The reel is also equipped with QD drag engagement, Infinite anti-reverse, Daiwa’s AirBail and has a line capacity of 240 metres of 12lb line.
Daiwa’s Tournament Basiair: the true angler’s lightweight heavy hitter.
