Quick take
A lightweight mid-size spinning reel with fast retrieve and air rotor technology for smooth, stable casting all day.
The Daiwa Ninja LT 6000 is a large front-drag spinning reel with a 5.1:1 gear ratio that picks up about 92 cm of line per handle turn. Its light polycarbonate body and air rotor keep the weight near 370 grams, and it holds roughly 150 meters of 0.40 mm mono or 300 meters of 0.22 mm braid. It suits anglers who want a big-capacity spinning reel for heavier freshwater or surf work without carrying a heavy reel.
