Reels

Team Daiwa “Fuego™ Brings Magnesium Advantages Bringing Magnesium’s lightweight strength to a more affordable price range are two new Team Daiwa Fuego™ baitcasting reels, the right handed TD Fuego and mirror-image left hand version TD Fuego L.

Pick one up and the first thing you feel is the weight, better said the lack of it, thanks to an ultra-lightweight Magnesium frame and sideplate. This also provides a rigid, flex-free housing to support the gear train for less wear and greater winding power.

The next thing you feel is the shape. The reels set lower on the rod than most equivalent sized reels. Yet even with this compact, low-profile palming shape, Fuego™ (Foo-waygo, Spanish for Fire) packs in plenty of line capacity for just about any freshwater fishing need.

For maximum casting performance, the reel’s free-floating spool is kept under control by Daiwa’s new Magforce®-Z system, applying smooth magnetic braking only when needed most to help control backlash. Visit www.daiwa.com.


Quantum’s Accurist AC500PT The Quantum Accurist AC500PT features a new smaller shape. It is housed in a new CNC machined aluminum frame and sports an all-aluminum crankside cover for improved strength and durability. The cast control has been improved to feature the new ACS II technology while the reel’s polymner-stainless hybrid five bearing system and extra-hard PT gearing give you a cranking advantage.

Other features: titanium-coated line guide, Ceramic Zirconia level-wind system and Zero-play Continuous Anti-reverse. Visit www.quantmfishing.com for more information.


President“ Wide Low Profile Baitcast Reel In 2004 the Pflueger “President” Low Profile Baitcast Reel became the benchmark by which all other low profiles were measured.

Built tough for salt and fresh water applications, yet packed with the same features and silky smoothness as the original, the Pflueger “President” Wide Low-Profile Baitcast Reel is sure to be an instant success in 2005 for anglers wanting the same “President” Reel but with more line capacity.
