Get on your feet, fish deep, fish hard and tackle the oceans biggest of game and let the powerful Megatwin Electric motor take up the strain, not your back. We all know the physicality of fishing deep. We all know the time it takes to wrestle in hundreds of meters of line, so unrewarding when there is no fish attached. We also know that when a monster is attached, and unless we have marathon ready levels of fitness, the fish likely to win.
The Daiwa Seaborg Megatwin Electric Reel takes out the huge physical effort but none of the fun and challenge of landing mega fish. The sheer endurance required to fish deep and big precludes many a person from this type of game fishing. The Megatwin changes all of this, allowing just about anybody to tackle the deepest of water and the biggest of fish. The twin ratio system switches from heavy crank to speed with the touch of a button. Wind is engaged with the press of a lever using the Jog Power Lever. 22 bearings keep things profoundly smooth and mega line capacities, 33kg of ATD max drag with inbuilt drag radiator, ensure you maintain the upper hand while staying cool, calm and collected.
Everything you could possibly want to know, including how much line you have out and where your bait was last cast, is displayed on the LCD Dot Screen Display, big, and easy to read.

So if you're looking for an electric reel that's lightweight and easy to carry, Perfect for light offshore and inshore fishing applications, then the Daiwa Seaborg 300J is perfect.
