Quick take
A lightweight size 2500 spinning reel with smooth action and strong drag system for freshwater and saltwater casting.
The Daiwa Ninja LT 2500-XH is a lightweight spinning reel in the 2500 size, built around Daiwa's LT concept with an aluminum Longcast spool and a CNC machined aluminum crank. A 6.2:1 gear ratio brings in about 34.5 inches of line per turn, which suits lures that need to be worked quickly. It is ambidextrous and spooled for braid, making it a handy match for light-to-medium spinning rods.
