Fishing Applications and Daiwa Aird Reel Buyers Guide
Small Sizes (2000 or 2500) - Daiwa Aird LT 2000 or 2500 reels are ideal for both freshwater and saltwater fishing. This size generally caters to the angler who fishes in lakes and rivers, streams and bays for species such as bream, bass, flathead, whiting, trout, bass, redfin, yellowbelly etcetera.
We recommend picking a fishing rod around the 6-7ft mark to ideally suit this size reel with a line rating anywhere from around 2-5kgs. As this is a guide only; you may have your personal preference.
Medium Sizes (3000, 4000 or 5000) - Daiwa Aird LT Reel 3000, 4000 or 5000 are medium size reels suitable for a variety of fishing styles from heavier inshore fishing on a 6-7ft rod for cod, barra and mulloway through to light offshore for snapper and other reef fish.
A 4000-5000 size will also match up to a light 10-10ft 6inch surf rod. Look for a fishing rod with a rating anywhere from 4kg through to 10kg mark. Graphite is the best option.
Freshwater anglers hunting record Murray Cod will also enjoy 4000-5000. Pegging hard bodies at Saratoga will also be a special for either reel. Whatever your target, you can be assured that the Digigear and 4+1 ball bearings will provide you with a smooth but unyielding performance during the toughest of battles versus the most belligerent of fish.

Large Sizes (6000) – We finish off the range with the Daiwa Aird 6000 LT Reel. The 6000 is where inshore comfortably meets offshore.
From our coastal fringes, you have enough range with a 6000 Aird to comfortably fish the rocks or beach chasing salmon, whiting, flathead, tailor, kingfish, bonito, snapper, drummer and several other species that you may find when fishing such applications.
For rock and beach, Daiwa Aird 6000 LT fishing reels ideally match to 8-10ft fishing rods rated to suit your application. Fish light on a rod appraised to around 5kg or fish hefty to 15kg.
With inshore aside, the size of the 6000 Aird fishing reel makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of offshore reef and sport fishing styles too.

Offshore boat anglers are best to choose shorter rods, typically 5-7ft. A 6000 will pair well with a wide range of rod ratings when fishing offshore. However, appraised rod ratings usually will rank at 10kg or above.
