Daiwa - Castizm BR 25A Reel

Daiwa Cast'izm BR 25A Reel

The Daiwa Cast’izm BR 25A is one of the incredible reels built on Daiwa’s revolutionary Cast’izm concept. Cast’izm takes the idea of a big pit carp and sea fishing reel and transforms it into compact body. This process has broken new ground in terms of spool geometry, offering a shallow spool taper that can cast distances to match the Basia. It manages these incredible distances in a significantly smaller body, making it easier and lighter to balance on your chosen surf caster or carp rod – as well as making it easier to transport and store. With an impressive 5.7:1 ratio, allowing for 107cm of line retrival with each handle turn, this really is a distance performance machine.

Simply modifying the tried and tested big pit spool wasn’t enough for the likes of Daiwa, however, and the brand has also worked hard to ensure that all of its revolutionary technologies can perform superbly on this new spool design. This includes the world renowned Bite ‘n’ Run, which has been completely remodelled to perform effectively on the new compact reel. Bite ‘n’ Run operated using a patented lever system that, when engaged, inhibits the drag on the reel allows for complete free spooling. This means that when a fish takes your bait it can bite and run with it, ensuring a positive hook set. However, the second you pick up the handle the drag automatically engages and Bite ‘n’ Run lever deactivates. This is ideal for the angler who likes to target the biggest carp and saltwater species as it reduces the risk of hook pulls and lost fish.

Cast’izm and Bite ‘n’ Run aren’t the only top end technologies featured on the Daiwa Cast’izm BR 25A. The reel is also Mag Sealed – a technology inspired by the team at NASA which completely waterproofs the internal reel mechanisms. Mag Sealing the reel gives the reel a significantly longer, and smoother, life, as you don’t have to worry about corrosive salt or grit damaging the vital internal parts.

If you’re looking for a reel to revolutionise your distance fishing then you need look no further – the Daiwa Cast’izm BR 25A does it all.
