Quick take
Lightweight electric trolling reel with 5.1:1 ratio, power-assist retrieve, and lightweight graphite construction.
The Daiwa 23 Leobritz 300J is a right-handle electric reel with a graphite body and a 5.1 gear ratio, built for powered retrieves on deep-water boat trips. It weighs about 540 g and holds braided line, with capacities of 3/400, 4/300 and 5/230 in Daiwa's PE numbering. A drag of up to 4.7 lb and a 27.6 inch winding length per turn suit anglers stepping up from manual reels to electric.
