fluorocarbon wire

Daiwa 25 Iprimi LT 2000 is a specialized ultra-lightweight spinning reel engineered specifically for Trout Area and Finesse Fishing enthusiasts who demand low rotational inertia, supreme tactile sensitivity, and precise line control. Crafted entirely from ZAION V carbon composite material across both the main body frame and the AIRDRIVE ROTOR, this reel delivers high structural rigidity while keeping physical weight to an absolute minimum. Built under Daiwa’s AIRDRIVE DESIGN philosophy, the reel shifts mass closer to the angler's hand, creating an exceptionally balanced setup that eliminates wrist fatigue during extended finesse sessions.

Every detail is tailored for micro-lure manipulation: the solid aluminum screw-in handle is outfitted with an I-Type Finesse Knob—derived from Daiwa’s flagship Presso tournament series—featuring a thin profile, high-grip texture, and two dedicated ball bearings for friction-free cranking. Line management for ultra-fine lines (PE braids, fluorocarbon, and light nylon) is handled by the Twist Buster 3 line roller with a built-in bearing, paired with the seamless AIRDRIVE BAIL wire. The drag mechanism relies on the smooth ATD Type-L system, offering immediate, non-sticking startup inertia to protect delicate leaders and barbless hooks during fights with flighty trout.

Key Technical Achievements & Hardware

  • ZAION V Body & Rotor: High-density carbon-based composite delivering high structural strength with ultra-light weight.

  • AIRDRIVE DESIGN & AIRDRIVE ROTOR: Balanced architecture providing minimal startup resistance to detect subtle bites and lure vibrations.

  • AIRDRIVE BAIL & Twist Buster 3: Hollow bail wire paired with a 3rd generation line roller equipped with an internal bearing to suppress line twist.

  • ATD Type-L Drag System: Ultra-smooth drag calibration tuned specifically for fine lines and barbless hook protection.

  • I-Type Finesse Knob on Bearings: Ergonomic, high-friction knob riding on 2 ball bearings for smooth, precise control during slow retrieves.

  • One-Piece Aluminum Handle: Machined aluminum handle arm threading directly into the drive gear to eliminate mechanical play.

  • High-Grade Bearing System: 8 total ball bearings including 2 corrosion-resistant CRBB bearings in high-wear zones.

Model Lineup Breakdown

The Daiwa 25 Iprimi LT2000 series is available in two specialized gear configurations tailored for specific trout area tactics:

  • IPRIMI LT 2000S-P Model: The cornerstone model for traditional trout area fishing. Featuring a shallow (S) spool and a slow gear ratio (P - Power Gear), it allows anglers to execute steady, slow retrieves with micro spoons and small cranks, maintaining a consistent depth zone in cold or tough fishing conditions.

  • IPRIMI LT 2000S-XH Model: The high-speed edition (XH - Extra High Gear) designed for active lure presentations. Built for fast line pickup when working minnows, metal vibrations, or techniques requiring rapid cadence changes and twitching actions.

Recommended Applications

  • Trout Area Competition: Essential reel for competitive area trout anglers fishing with micro spoons, small hardbaits, and fine lines.

  • Ultra-Light Freshwater & Rockfishing: Performs exceptionally well for panfish, perch, chub, and light saltwater rockfishing where maximum sensitivity and fine line handling are required.

Captain-J Southern Tuna STH700 is a premium hook dedicated to the most demanding Big Game sessions and tournaments. Crafted from high-grade stainless steel, this hook features a forged construction that enhances structural integrity without adding unnecessary bulk. The chemically sharpened point is engineered for instant penetration even in the toughest, boniest mouths of large Bluefin Tuna or billfish.

The "Southern Tuna" bend is meticulously designed to provide a secure hold during the longest, high-stress battles, preventing the hook from straightening or slipping under extreme drag. The reinforced eye accommodates heavy-gauge fluorocarbon leaders or wire traces, making it exceptionally versatile for both live baiting and rigging heavy-duty lures for trolling or offshore spinning. Its total resistance to marine corrosion makes it a long-lasting investment for every offshore angler.

Perhaps the best leader wire available! Surflon Micro Supreme is miniature 49 strand stainless steel wire that is extremely flexible and kink resistant. This wire is ideal for many types of sport fishing because it can be knotted to your bait and line like monofilament, it provides greater flexibility and less stretch than monofilament, and is generally smaller diameter per pound test, and therefore, less visible in the water. Surflon Micro Supreme is extra limp and has virtually no memory or stretch. The wire enhances the action of live and artificial baits and adds a level of realism never before attainable using wire or other leader materials such as monofilament and fluorocarbon. This wire is ideal for presenting life-like bait at any depth and can fool tackle-shy Billfish while withstanding the violent razor-sharp strikes of King Mackerel and Shark. Excellent for casting flies and tempting the most discriminating toothy fish to the surface. No other wire offers more realistic action both above and below the water. Low elasticity and high sensitivity allow you to set hooks faster and with more accuracy. Attach using common monofilament knots such as the Albright Knot, Clinch Knot, Nail Knot, Perfection Loop, Surgeon�s Loop, or Uni-Knot. Made in USA by AFW. The Original Knottable Leader Wire Since 1995! 49 Individual stranded stainless steel wires coated with flexible clear nylon. Ties like mono with the strength and bite resistance of stainless steel. Perfect for all toothy fish including King Mackerel, Bluefish and Barracuda. Great to use when targeting Billfish, Sailfish, Tarpon or Striped Bass but toothy fish are in the area.
