A lightweight spinning reel with Daiwa's refined Airdrive aluminum body for smooth dragging and responsive handling.
The 2023 Lexa is a size 3000 spinning reel from Daiwa with a machined aluminum body and the Airdrive design, which keeps the weight toward the back for easier handling. It has an ambidextrous handle, five ball bearings plus one roller bearing, and a spool set up for braided line. It suits anglers who want a compact metal-bodied spinning reel for general freshwater and light inshore work.
