Daiwa Silver Creek X LT Reel

The Daiwa Silver Creek range of reels, expands and welcomes a newcomer in 2023: the SilverCreek X LT. This reel was designed for Trout fishing and other predators with lures.

This reel has been developed under the LT concept (Light & Tough). It has been developed around a Zaion V Carbon Frame increasing its resistance, while reducing its weight. Zaion, is an exclusive, high-density carbon material, with anti-corrosion properties, that’s both lighter and tougher than magnesium. Zaion is as tough as metal, but as light as carbon. Any reel with a Zaion body, cares for an ultra-safe housing of the drive, thus guaranteeing permanently silky-smooth running.

It is also equipped with the arched Air Rotor GS5 concept, as well as a hollow aluminum Air Ball pick-up hoop, to help save weight, while bringing smoothness to the rotation. The limits are pushed back here thanks to the latest version of the Tough Digigear control gear, as its unique rotational power, extends the life of the reel.

The handle’s grip is made of natural cork, a not very common material to be used nowadays. The comfortable and safe grip that it offers and the sense of "naturalness" that cork offers as a material, is incomparable. Its ability to withstand high forces, to have a long life span, even when used in salt water and to transfer the control of the reel to our hands, are some of its key advantages.

The Cross-Wrap system allows an optimized winding of the braid, by crossed turns and a better exit of the line during the casting phase. This is one of the key factors in preventing problems with twists and coils.

Finally, the long cast ABS aluminum spool, has an optimized lip allowing precise casts, thanks to the reduction of friction.
