Quick take
A lightweight Daiwa reel with 12 bearings and compact 60mm handle for all-day versatile fishing.
The Daiwa 22 Exist LT5000-CXH is a size 5000 spinning reel built around a 6.2:1 gear ratio, which pulls about 105 cm of line per handle turn. It weighs 8.7 oz, has a maximum drag of 22 lb, and runs on 12 ball bearings plus one roller bearing with an aluminum handle. That fast retrieve and ambidextrous handle suit anglers working larger lures or covering water quickly with a light-feeling spinning setup.
