The Daiwa 23 Longbeam 35 QD5 is a highly advanced surfcasting reel engineered to help land-based anglers reach beyond the breakers. Built around a lightweight yet incredibly rigid Zaion V body and rotor, it handles harsh New Zealand saltwater conditions with ease. Its 35mm Long Cast spool and Quick Drag system make it the ultimate weapon for launching large baits off the beach or rocks to target big Snapper and Kingfish.

• Zaion V Construction Utilises advanced carbon hybrid resin in the body and rotor for extreme lightness without sacrificing structural strength.
• 35mm Long Cast (LC) Spool Optimised for maximum casting distance, helping land-based anglers hit deeper channels and distant structures.
• Quick Drag (QD) System Allows an instant transition from free-spooling to a locked drag, ideal for straylining and targeting running Snapper.
• Cross Wrap Technology Prevents line dig-in by crisscrossing the line wrap, ensuring smooth and trouble-free line release during powerful casts.
• Magsealed Core Employs a liquid magnetic seal to keep saltwater and dust out of the internals, significantly extending the reel’s lifespan.
• Aluminum Machine-Cut Handle Features an 85mm rigid handle arm for a powerful and stable winding feel when fighting heavy fish.
