Daiwa – Tournament 6000 ST Reel

This Tournament ST from Daiwa is the classic elite big pit reel, adored by distance casters and continental carpers alike. Renowned for its incredible reliability and rugged ability, this reel features Daiwa’s patented worm gear oscillation system and ensures a faultless line lay every time. The large capacity spool can take 330m of 14lb or18lb line (dependant on reel size, 5000 and 6000 models respectively) with ease, so it can handle even the most aggressive of distance casts.
TwistBuster technology, a rotating system fitted onto the bail arm to counteract line-twist, ensures that all this line doesn’t suffer from tangles. It also significantly extends the lifespan of your chosen line, as it seriously reduces the friction between the line and the bail arm. A spring loaded line guard is also at play in this reel and does its bit to prevent tangles, too.
The front drag system on this reel is enviable and is easily adjusted between freespool and solid thanks to the ten washer micro-adjustable gear system. The reel itself has a 4.2:1 gear ratio on the 5000 and 3.1:1 on the 6000, meaning you get an awful lot of power for your money. The gearing itself is constructed from Super Dura aluminium and features a super metal rotor for additional durability. Incredibly, this reel features seven ball bearings. Not only does this ensure that this big pit is a smooth operator, but these ball bearings also ensure that the Tournament ST will have a long life, as they significantly reduce friction in the internal mechanism.
Finished in gun metal grey with a polished alloy spool, this reel is as classic in appearance as it is in ability. The perfect compliment to any high-modulus modern Daiwa rod, when you invest in a Tournament ST you’ll never look back!
