Description
Match the performance of more expensive reels with the Daiwa® Exceler LT Spinning Reel. Using minimalist engineering, LT (Light but Tough) technology reduces reel dimensions but makes the whole stronger than ever through the use of Carbon Light composite materials. The Exceler's compact body design has an upgraded Digigear™ drive for the perfect combination of toughness and light weight. With a much greater strength-to-weight ratio, the reels are lighter and can be handled without fatigue over the long course of a full day's fishing. Aluminum Air Spool reduces weight while enhancing overall balance. A machined aluminum handle provides a comfortable, strong connection to the main gear. The Air Rotor and Air Bail® designs reduce the weight, yet efficiently disperse the pressure of the line over the bail to the whole part. All in all, the Exceler LT Spinning Reel is extremely smooth and fun to fish, utilizing a 5+1 ball bearing system with roller bearing to maximize performance.

Diawa Exceler LT 1000 reelLooked for a light weight reel to put on my new 6'6 Ugly Stik spinning rod. This reel will work well walleye fishing on Houghton Lake.

DAIWA EXCELERThis is my 3rd Daiwa Exceler reel. So smooth. I bought the 1000 size for my trout steam fishing trips here in Minnesota. Nice drag and the spool is large enough to prevent line coiling. Use Suffix 832 in 6# size with a 3' florocarbon leader and you're all set for success.

This reel is so light sometimes i’d forget it wasI bought this (and inevitably lost it) after my fuego went into the water while carp fishing. Needed a reel under 100 that could take on bass but could also reel in 20-30 lb carp and steelhead when necesary...the exceler 2500 did the trick. I rarely missed fish on this reel. It weighed nothing and was still so solid. It was paired with a daiwa aird x 7ft medium and that rod shined with the reel. I lost the whole setup when the exceler and my carp rod went into the water because the reel was just so light the carp didn’t even feel it there! Off to buy another one thats how good they are!

Best Daiwa EverBought the 1000D for use with 8lb test. Very smooth, solid, joy to use. Also, NO NOISE of any kind, quietest spinning reel I have ever used. Drag is more than sufficient for bass, landed a 5 lb bass on it today that hit when I had about 15 feet of line out. So far ahead of my old non-LT Daiwas its crazy. You could easily spend 3x as much and not get as good a reel as this

You get a lot for your money.First of all these reels are extremely smooth, and light. I love the drag, it has micro adjustment and fish can run and run and your drag will not mess up at all. I have one of these attached to a Fenwick HMG rod and I barely feel the weight in my hands. You wont regret this purchase. Daiwa has become my go to reel company from now-on. I own 2 of these one is a 2000 and a 2500, you can fish for blue gill all the way to monster cats with these reels.

Great Value ReelThis reel is a great value and works as well as some of my reels costing 2-3 times more. Diawa has kept the reverse switch on their reels that other manufacturers have deleted (to save cost). This reel is light and smooth. I have 2 of them. I fish largemouth bass here in MN and this reel is perfect.
was wondering what the braid capacity is for the 2500 model
Asked by: Dicintio

What are the drag components made of? I'm a huge fan of the carbon disc drag.
Asked by: Sidecut10
A smartly priced reel that can match the performance of many more expensive models. The Carbon Light Material Housing was designed with the LT concept of light but tough, in mind. The carbon-based material is light yet very strong making the reel easy to manage over the long haul. A machined aluminum handle is a comfortable, strong connection to the main gear of the spinning reel. The Air Rotor and Air Bail designs reduce the weight, yet efficiently disperse the pressure of the line over the bail to the whole part. The reel is extremely smooth utilizing 5 ball bearings and 1 roller bearing to maximize performance. In a world of you get what you pay for, the Daiwa Exceler LT series of reels gives you more design technology and concept than reels twice the price.

Hi, the Daiwa Exceler LT Spinning Reel bearings are steel, but are not the stainless steel versions like some of our higher end options.
