Quick take
A 400 size electric reel with power-assist retrieve, synchronous level wind and drag suited to deep offshore jigging and bottom fishing for grouper, snapper and squid.
The Daiwa Leo Blitz S400 is a compact 400-size electric reel built for braided PE line. A power lever controls the winding speed, and the synchronous level wind lays line evenly on the spool. With a 3.6 gear ratio, a 22 lb maximum drag and room for 219 yards of line, it suits boat anglers working a range of saltwater species.
