Daiwa Lexa W 4012 Feeder Edition Reel

Daiwa Lexa W 4012 Feeder Edition Reel

The Lexa W 4012 Feeder Edition is a reel designed according to the specifications of world champion Walter Tamas, specifically recommended for feeder fishing with feeders and baskets. Utilizing the most innovative technologies in the field, the Lexa W 4012 is reimagined to provide stationary fishing enthusiasts with a powerful, high-performance, durable tool that features an incredibly smooth retrieval.

The reel's body is made from lightweight and rigid HardBodyZ® aluminum, excellently resisting extreme demands. The DigiGear II system provides instant power transmission during retrieval and increased durability, making this reel a reliable companion even for the most active fishing sessions, with hundreds of casts and retrieves per day. The curved rotor (Air Rotor) is 15% lighter than most standard models, ensuring perfect line lay on the spool and eliminating vibrations thanks to its lowered center of gravity.

The ABS aluminum spool features a conical shape to minimize the risk of line tangling during casts. Moreover, the lip reduces friction to increase casting distance. The semi-rounded metal clip is finely finished, allowing precise line attachment, which is incredibly useful when targeting specific feeding zones. The Twist Buster roller guarantees optimal line tension, significantly reducing the risk of line breakage during retrieval.

The micrometric front drag functions exemplary, allowing a simple 180° turn of the lever to adjust the spool from tight to free. With a short movement, we can set the drag from locked, ready for the casting phase, just as easily as we can adjust the drag power for a fight with a big fish. The reel comes with a spare aluminum spool (identical to the main one).

With a gear ratio of 5.7:1 and an approximate retrieval of 101cm of line per turn of the handle, the angler remains in full control with minimal effort, even when bringing in trophy catches. In terms of aesthetics, the black hue contrasts beautifully with the cherry red finish on the spool. The "T" shaped knob button made from grippy TPE fits perfectly in the angler's palm, providing a firm hold and ease of use.

The Daiwa Lexa 4012 is especially recommended for rods up to 3.90m in length, regardless of anglers' preferences for fishing methods or target fish. This reel is excellent for method feeder anglers targeting carp, crucian carp, bream, or barbel both in private waters and flowing rivers.

NOTE: The spool diameter (measured at the outer lip) is 57mm, and the height (the usable part outfitted with line) measures 24mm.
