Daiwa: Going Coastal

Going COASTAL

DAIWAs new COASTAL SV TW 150 is the essential midsize baitcaster for control, long bombs, and elimination of seaside birds nests.

FOOTHILL RANCH, CA (September 10, 2024) If your freshwater baitcasting reels are double-timing as saltwater stand-ins, this is your clarion call to specialize for the brine. DIAWAs new saltwater-centric COASTAL SV TW 150 is a premium, oceanic grade baitcaster conceived for versatile inshore performance.

DAIWAs existing COASTAL lineup is cornerstone amongst inshore saltwater anglers. The svelte COASTAL 80 is prized with finesse wade and kayak anglers flinging lighter jigs, swimbaits, jerkbaits, and topwaters. The brawny COASTAL 200 caters to inshore and nearshore anglers who have an appetite for big lures and bigger fish. And, nestled perfectly in between replacing the COASTAL SV TW 150 is DIAWAs new utilitarian workhorse, the COASTAL SV TW 150.

It hits that sweet spot in the middle, said DAIWA Field Marketing Manager, Chris Martin, about the COASTAL SV TW 150s not too big, not too small stature. The new ergonomic 100 size frame feels comfortable and secure in the hand, while the 150 capacity spool provides added line capacity.

DAIWA developed it for the Gulf Coast market, but the COASTAL series has been finding fans on the Pacific and Atlantic coasts, too, continued Martin. Whether the angler is trying to pitch mangroves, place a precision cast for tailing reds, or sink a swimbait between dense lanes of kelp stringers, the reels T-Wing system helps accurately place those casts.

This is a true saltwater grade reel; the corrosion resistance ball bearings (CRBB) remain smooth trip after trip. Combine that with the high-strength brass gearing and all the angler needs to do at the end of the day is rinse it with freshwater and theyre good to go.

Martin likes the COASTAL SV TW 150 for the popular class of midsized lures, which, truthfully, compose over half of whats hanging on the pegs. Its an ace for swimbaits, jigs over ¼-ounce, hard jerkbaits, and topwaters.

Whatmore, Martin says the reels SV TECHNOLOGY does what other baitcasters cant: manage the Cirque du Soleil cartwheels when throwing popping cork rigs. The SV Spool and magnetic braking combine to absorb the surge when casting a popping cork, and as a result, prevent the reel from backlashing. Its awesome in action.

Make DAIWAs COASTAL SV TW 150 your new midweight baitcasting champ. And if youre still repurposing freshwater reels for the salt, this is your opportunity to take the blue water plunge. 

COASTAL SV TW 15O FEATURES:

SV TECHNOLOGY

The SV (Stress-Free, Versatile) A7075 aircraft grade spool was developed with one thing in mind: casting control. The design of the spool, as well as how the spool interacts with the braking system, gives maximum control on the cast while increasing casting distance. No backlashes. Longer casts.

HYPERDRIVE ARMED HOUSING

A distortion-proof aluminum frame steadfastly houses the gear unit within the reel body. The concept comprises a combination of different manufacturing techniques, which considerably improve the functioning and lifespan of the reel.

HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR

A technology that makes gear teeth more efficient at transferring power, resulting in a smoother, more powerful gear set that also reduces gear noise. The gears are also strengthened by larger teeth in the traction wheel. And, the gearing has three points of contact most gearing has only two which maintains interaction between the gear teeth, yielding smoothness and longer gear life.

HYPERDRIVE TOUGH CLUTCH

The clutch mechanics have been optimized to remain safely in position even on hard casts.

T-WING SYSTEM (TWS)

An innovative T shaped mechanical aperture that the line passes through when casting and retrieving baits, which allows the line to flow freely, reducing friction and sharp angles that slow line flow. TWS is unique to DAIWA baitcasting reels.

CRBB

Unlike ordinary, unprotected "corrosion resistant" bearings, DAIWA's CRBB ball bearings are shielded to seal out sand, fine grit, salt crystals, and other abrasives for a longer life. CRBB ball bearings are 12 times more corrosion resistant than standard ball bearings.

ULTIMATE TOURNAMENT DRAG (UTD)

The sophisticated drag system uses carbon washers, alloy, stainless steel drag plates, and special lubricant to provide smooth performance. UTD prevents sticking when dragging starts and stable drag for the duration of fighting a fish.

ZERO ADJUSTER

The spool tension knob comes ideally preset at the factory to match the model and reduce backlash when casting into the wind or with lighter lures. However, anglers can fine tune the spool tension to their personal preferences.

100mm SWEPT HANDLE

The increased torque turns the barrel with greater ease. The handle also utilizes comfortable Soft Touch Knobs.

MSRP $279.99

THE PERFECT PAIRING

Inshore anglers should consider DAIWAs new Isla AGS series for general cast and retrieve style fishing for redfish, flounder, speckled trout, smaller snapper, and sheepshead. The COASTAL SV TW 150 also pairs with conventional models in the Saltist Light Action Surf series for Gulf redfish, speckled trout, and flounder, as well as west coast surf perch, croaker, halibut, and corbina. It also matches well with Harrier Super Light Jigging Rods for shallow reef fishing.
