Daiwa Tatula 300 Baitcaster Reel

Big baits and big fish, that’s been the standard practice for Murray cod anglers for the past few seasons. With the increased popularity of big-bait fishing, Daiwa engineers needed a solution. The result? Introducing the brand-new TATULA 300.

Designed to meet the needs of big-bait anglers worldwide, TATULA 300 features everything which has made TATULA reels before it so popular, and a host of features reserved only for the 300 size.

Built around an overall larger size aluminium frame, TATULA 300 features a 43mm diameter spool that is 26.5mm wide. This spool profile still allows the reel to sit comfortably in the palm, whilst allowing for the increased line capacity needed when fishing very heavy line. A newly developed double anti-reverse is a feature that has long been requested in heavy-duty baitcast reels by Australian anglers and is now implemented inside the TATULA 300.

Daiwa’s famous TWS improves casting distance allowing zero friction line flow. Heavy-duty brass gearing is standard, and the stainless-steel main shaft is stronger than ever before. A 7-layer UTD drag stack pumps out 13kg of maximum drag pressure, stopping even Papuan Black Bass in their tracks.

All of this is topped off with a 110mm extra-long handle and newly designed soft-touch XL handle knobs. Available in multiple ratios in both right and left hand models, TATULA 300 is the ultimate big-bait reel for the ultimate in big-bait fishing.

 

Features

ALUMINIUM BODY - Lightweight and incredibly strong, aluminium allows strength and weightlessness to be achieved without the cost and corrosion issues of other metals.

CRBB - Lasting 12 times longer than standard stainless steel bearings Daiwa’s CRBBs feature specially treated stainless steel, and a protective shield on the bearing race that seals out sand, fine grit, salt crystals and other abrasives. The result is a longer lasting bearing that’s protected from the corrosive elements that destroy traditional bearings.

MAGFORCE - Daiwa’s first iteration of the famous magnetic cast control system, Magforce is a spool braking system designed to slow the rotational speed through a dialled magnetic control.

UTD DRAG - A system that combines ultra smooth low inertia with ultimate fish stopping power. UTD combines advanced carbon washers, alloy and stainless steel drag plates with specially designed grease for ultra-smooth performance.
