Daiwa 24 Prorex X LT 3000-CXH Spinning Reel

The High-Speed Predator Advantage for UK Waters

The Daiwa 24 Prorex X LT 3000-CXH is engineered for the modern predator angler in the UK who demands both blistering speed and lightweight performance. This reel perfectly embodies Daiwa’s Light & Tough (LT) concept, combining a compact 3000-size body with a rapid, high-speed gear ratio. The ‘X’ denotes the quality build, the ‘C’ signifies a Compact body, and the ‘XH’ stands for eXtra High speed, making it an essential tool for reactive lure fishing across our rivers, lakes, and canals.

Product Features and UK Fishing Relevance

Unmatched Speed for Active Lure Fishing

With a powerful $6.2:1$ gear ratio, the Prorex X LT3000-CXH retrieves an impressive $93$ cm of line per turn. This high speed is critical for:

• Zander Fishing (Vertical Jigging): The rapid take-up allows you to quickly adjust to depth changes and maintain tension when a zander follows your lure up.
• Pike & Perch Lure Work: Perfect for imparting fast, erratic action to crankbaits, spoons, or soft plastics, and for quickly picking up slack line after a long cast or a sudden take.
• River Trout Fishing: The extra speed is invaluable when casting small spinners or plugs upstream, ensuring you can match the current and retrieve the lure effectively.

AIRDRIVE Design for Sensitivity and Balance

Featuring the latest Daiwa AIRDRIVE Design, the reel’s overall rotational inertia is significantly reduced. The lightweight AIRDRIVE ROTOR® shifts the centre of gravity rearward, resulting in:

• Enhanced Feel: You gain a superior connection to your lure, allowing you to detect the subtlest of taps from wary UK fish species like perch or street bass.
• Effortless Casting: The lightweight design reduces fatigue during long sessions of repeated casting, common in shore or boat predator fishing.

Power and Durability (LT & TOUGH DIGIGEAR)

Despite its light weight, the reel is built for battle. The TOUGH DIGIGEAR® drive is precision-milled for smooth operation and superior strength, ensuring it can handle the hard runs of a big pike or the powerful head-shakes of a large zander. The powerful 10 kg drag is governed by Daiwa’s ATD™ Type-L Drag System, which delivers a smooth, consistent payout to protect lighter braided lines under pressure.

Optimised for UK Braided Line Use

The semi-shallow AIRDRIVE ABS® Longcast Spool and Twist Buster® III Line Roller system are specifically designed for use with thin braided lines, which are the go-to for UK predator fishing. This combination promotes excellent line lay, minimizes line twist, and maximises casting distance. The new AIRDRIVE BAIL further aids in line management, drastically reducing wind knots, a common frustration when using light braid in windy British conditions.
