Daiwa Tatula X TW 100 Baitcasting Reel

The Daiwa Tatula X TW 100 delivers pro-level baitcasting performance at an accessible price point — built around Daiwa's HyperDrive Design gearing system and LC Concept MAGFORCE-Z Spool for smooth, long-distance casts with minimal backlash across a wide lure range. Whether you're burning spinnerbaits, working swimbaits, or grinding crankbaits all day, the Tatula X TW handles it with confidence.

Available in six variants — three gear ratios (6.3:1, 7.1:1, 8.1:1) in both right and left-hand retrieve — so you can match the reel to your technique and dominant hand without compromise.

Key Features

• LC Concept MAGFORCE-Z Spool — Adjustable magnetic braking system optimized for lures 1/4–3/4 oz; maximizes casting distance while minimizing backlash.
• T-Wing System (TWS) — Reduces line friction at the levelwind for smoother line flow and increased casting distance on every throw.
• HyperDrive Design — Precision-cut gearing delivers buttery-smooth cranking and reduced wear under heavy loads, cast after cast.
• ATD Automatic Tournament Drag — Carbon fiber drag washers provide silky-smooth, consistent pressure up to 11 lbs max drag.
• Aluminum Frame — Lightweight yet rigid construction for superior balance, durability, and long-term performance.
• 7+1 Ball Bearings — Ultra-smooth operation for reliable hooksets and sustained fights.
• Right & Left Hand Available — All three gear ratios offered in both retrieve orientations.

Gear Ratio Selection Guide

• 7.1:1 (X TW 100H / 100HL) — All-around workhorse ratio; versatile for most bass and inshore techniques including jigs, Texas rigs, and medium-depth cranks.
• 8.1:1 (X TW 100XH / 100XHL) — High-speed retrieve for burning topwaters, spinnerbaits, flipping, and pitching where fast line pickup is critical.
