Product Details and Uses

Daiwa 24 Certate LT3000D-XH

The Daiwa 24 Certate LT3000D-XH represents the next generation of precision and power. Known globally for its legendary “Toughness,” the 2024 evolution introduces the Airdrive Design—a four-pillar technological leap that makes the reel lighter to operate while maintaining the rigid, unyielding strength of its Aluminium Monocoque (MQ) body.

This 3000-size model is the sweet spot for many UK anglers. It is light enough for all-day casting at just 205g, yet packs a massive 10kg drag and a high-speed retrieve that recovers 93cm of line per crank. Whether you are working the salt for Bass or targeting specimen trout in big water, the 24 Certate is built to handle the pressure for years to come.

Key Features & Innovation

Airdrive Design: This system redefines the rotor, spool, bail, and shaft. By reducing the weight of the front-end components, Daiwa has achieved a “weightless” rotation, giving you incredible feel and control over your lure.
MQ Monocoque Aluminium Body: The one-piece frame eliminates the need for a side plate and screws. This allows for a significantly larger Tough Digigear to be fitted, resulting in more power and a longer gear life.
MagSealed Protection: Using Daiwa’s unique magnetic oil, the body and line roller are sealed against the elements. This keeps saltwater and grit out of the 10 CRBB bearings, ensuring long-term smoothness.
Airdrive Shaft: A low-friction design that supports the pinion gear, ensuring that even when you are winding under heavy load, the reel remains light and effortless to turn.
Made in Japan: Crafted in Daiwa’s premier Japanese facility, each reel is built with the highest level of craftsmanship and quality control.

Where to Use the 24 Certate 3000D-XH

Light Saltwater Lure Fishing: Perfect for targeting Bass and Pollack from the shore. The 93cm retrieve is ideal for keeping up with lures in fast-moving surf or heavy tidal flows.
Large Stillwater Trout & Perch: The finesse of the Airdrive Rotor allows you to feel every “tap” on your lure, while the MQ body provides the backbone to steer big fish away from snags.
River Spinning: An excellent choice for Salmon and Sea Trout anglers who need a high-speed reel to keep the line tight in downstream currents.

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“The 3000D-XH is the absolute ‘Goldilocks’ size for the modern lure angler. It’s light enough for a 7ft finesse rod but has the guts to balance a 9ft shore rod perfectly. Because this is the XH (Extra High Gear) model, it’s a killer for surface lures—you can take up the slack instantly between pops or walks. My advice? Stick with a high-quality 8-strand braid like J-Braid Grand; the Cross Wrap system on this spool ensures you’ll get maximum casting distance with zero wind knots.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the benefit of the ‘D’ and ‘XH’ in the name?

A: The ‘D’ stands for Deep Spool, giving you more line capacity for those long-running fish. The ‘XH’ stands for Extra High Gear, which is perfect for lures that require a fast retrieve or for quickly recovering line in windy conditions.

Q: Can I use this reel in Saltwater?

A: Absolutely. With a MagSealed body and 10 Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings (CRBB), the Certate is specifically engineered to survive the toughest saltwater environments.

Q: How does the 2024 Certate feel compared to the 2019 model?

A: The biggest difference is the ‘Start-up.’ Because of the Airdrive Rotor, it takes significantly less effort to get the handle moving. It feels much ‘zippier’ and more sensitive, even though it’s just as tough as the old version.

Q: Does it come with a spare spool?

A: No, the 24 Certate is a premium Japanese-made reel and is supplied with a single, high-performance spool to maintain the highest quality standards. Spare spools are available to order separately if needed.
