Upon its release, the 2020 Daiwa Alphas Air TW reset the bar for casting reels when it comes to casting ultralight weights right out of the box. This reel is rated to cast down to 1g and features a 28mm G1 Duraluminum factory spool designed and tuned by the renowned Japanese aftermarket studio KTF (Karil Tuned Factory). At only 6.6g, the stock spool of the Daiwa Alphas Air TW is as perfectly comfortable creek fishing for trout as it is hauling in largemouth bass from lakes. Featuring Daiwa’s variable magnetic Air Brake System and Daiwa’s T Wing System (TWS) casting, this reel is smooth and controlled throughout the cast, even at long distances. The reel body is made of aluminum alloy, is rated as saltwater ready, and weighs in at only 160g making this reel very comfortable to palm and use.
