DAIWAProrex, XR Spin, Spinning Reel, Front Drag

Absolutely astounding that you can buy this reel sub £200. I don’t need to go on about what it has because the list is endless (have a look) smooth as butter retrieve, excellent drag. Perfect perch reel that can even handle medium pike if you need. I bought a Shimano Stradivarius and this reel embarrasses it easily. The only negative is the super strong handle doesn’t fold down and it’s a nightmare to take on and off , so I just leave it on permanently. Don’t be put off because it’s not an LT , because it has a super tough aluminium body and is built like a tank. They have now been discontinued because they were not cost effective to make, so get one while you can. Snooze and loose!
