Daiwa 23 Exist SF 1000S-P

AFTA 2023 John Dunphy Award for Innovation Winner daiwa

The 23 Exist SF Super Finesse spinning reels are specifically designed for light tackle, with up to 4lb mono and #0.6 braided lines for trout, bass and saltwater light games.

Compared to its base 22 Exist spinning, Exist SF has a smaller gear box, shorter spool and lighter rotors to maximise sensitivity.

It allows professional anglers to sense the bottom touch of 1g sinker at 10m deep with 2” worms.

The shortened spool reduces drag pressure changes by the position of line-to-line rollers to keep lines better.

Drag is finely tuned to offer lines more smoothly.

The key features of 22 Exist are still on this SF model.

A metal monocoque body holds the mechanical insides steady, while offering large inner space for over-sized gears and providing more efficient gearing.

Tough Digigear is made from cold-forged extra strong duralumin, machined to make more precise smooth gear teeth.

The strong gears offer superior smoothness and longer life.

A magseal is now at the rotor top to offer extended durability.

Magseals on the line roller and drive gear are replaced by regular ball bearing support to remove frictions.

A ball bearing Twist Buster three-line roller, which has a new groove at the roller, keeps lines straight without twisting.

ATD Type-L drag system – which offers more stable drag force at line acceleration than regular ATD – ensures increased drag when lines are pulled faster.

Saltwater-resistant CRBB bearings offer extended life.

With these features, Daiwa 23 Exist SF is the best light weight spinning feel for freshwater and light saltwater fishing.
