The Daiwa® Tatula® CT Type-R Baitcast Reel offers the exciting performance of the Tatula CT, with a few enhancements that make it even lighter, tougher, and more durable. Two of its ball bearings—the pair directly supporting the spool—have been upgraded to Daiwa's Corrosion-Resistant Ball Bearings, for extra durability in all conditions. In addition, the Type R features a super-lightweight A7075 aircraft-grade aluminum spool for enhanced casting and balance, plus a proprietary, super-lightweight Zaion™ high-density carbon drag star. All in all, this reel is precision balanced for the ultimate in smooth power. "Standard" features include a compact, palmable 1-pc. aluminum frame; massive gearing; Air Rotation spool deployment; innovative T-Wing levelwind for unhindered line flow at reduced angles; 8-bearing (7+1) system with instant anti-reverse; Daiwa Magforce®-Z cast control; Ultimate Tournament Carbon Drag (UTD) with up to 13.2 lbs. max drag power; and a 90mm Swept Handle with weight-reducing cutouts, Soft Touch knobs, and anodized, color-coded ID plate.
