Quick take
A lightweight spinning reel line in multiple sizes using Zaion V material for durability without weight.
The Daiwa 20 Legalis LT in the 5000-C size is a front-drag spinning reel with a compact body and a large spool. It has an aluminum handle, five ball bearings and an anti-reverse system, and it turns at a 5.2:1 gear ratio. Its line capacity suits monofilament from 10 to 20 pound test, which makes it a fit for anglers who want a larger spinning reel for heavier freshwater or light inshore work.
