FEEDBACK FROM FISHING SHOW 2015 – NO.8: THEM MAIN WEAPON OF DAIWA NEW EXIST

DAIWA renewed their top rank reel “EXIST” series. I asked the developer of DAIWA. Which point does the new model changed most from older model, immediately he started to explain about ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag).

To understand this new Drag system clearly, please watch pictures and video below:

Both reels are EXIST. One is 2015 and the other is 2012. If we pull the reel each other strongly, the Drag of 2012 is pulled out. It means the Drag setting of 2015 is stronger than 2012. But if we pull not reel slowly, the drag of 2015 is pulled out. It means in the beginning of pulling the line from reel, 2015 is smoother than 2012. The smoothness is one of the most important point of Drag. 2015 EXIST which is mounted ATD, has developed much more than 2012 about Drag.
