The Daiwa Crosscast Surf Reel is built for anglers who demand long-distance surfcasting performance. Designed with a 45mm long-stroke spool, this reel delivers exceptional casting distance, letting you reach untouched gutters and deeper water from the beach. Whether you’re chasing tailor and salmon or targeting mulloway after dark, the Crosscast Surf gives you the edge to connect with more fish.
The combination of Slow Cross Wrap Oscillation and the forward-taper spool ensures line is laid evenly and released smoothly, minimising friction and maximising distance. Built on a strong carbon composite body and powered by Digigear II drive, the Crosscast Surf provides smooth retrieves, excellent cranking power, and the toughness needed for Australian surf fishing conditions. With ATD Drag and Daiwa’s proven reliability, this reel is your go-to choice for serious surf anglers.
