Daiwa Free Swimmer Ex 8000 Bite & Run Spinning Reel
Free Swimmer EX 8000 Bite & Run Spinning Reel
Free Swimmer EX features an automatic Bite N’ Run clutch at the base of the body, allowing anglers to instantly disengage the spool so the line can peel off with little or no resistance while the bail is closed. Simply pull down on the lever to place the reel in free-spool mode and flip it back instantly to reengage when a fish grabs your bait. A small tension control knob at the back of the reel makes it easy to adjust spool tension to control the speed at which line plays out.
With the Free Swimmer EX, though, it’s easy to cast energetic live bait away from the vessel, so it can swim freely where you’re most likely to draw a strike. Fishing live-lining Gulf Coast hardtails or sardines, feeding big baits to tarpon in the Florida Keys, targeting huge cobia in the mid-Atlantic region, or swimming big bunkers in Northeast waters for cow stripers, Daiwa’s Free Swimmer EX provides that extra edge.
Using the tension control, anglers can moderate the speed at which the offerings swim, slowing overly active live bait to keep them centered in the strike zone. The ability to free-line with a closed bail also adds an extra degree of safety since anglers never have to keep a finger on a braided line to hold the bait in the perfect position.
Features:
- ATD Drag - Daiwa’s Automatic Tournament Drag uses an improved drag grease that exhibits a low viscosity at rest yet becomes more viscous immediately after drag start-up. This reduces initial drag start-up inertia and, combined with the structural changes of the ATD Drag System, results in a smoother drag from the initial hook-up.
- Digigear - Daiwa’s first generation of digitally engineered gear design ensures a perfect mesh between ultra-tough drive gears and pinion gears for optimized speed, power, durability, and smoothness.
- Machined Aluminum Handle - Ergonomically correct and screws easily into the body.
- Metal Ball Knob - Providing maximum contact between handle knob and hand, ball knobs are designed for optimal balance, rotation, and functionality.
