IDA FIRST LOOK: Daiwa Gekkabijin Air 2003
Daiwa’s latest finesse reel is here! and I couldn’t resist!
The Gekkabijin Air 2003 boasts some of Daiwa’s best and newest technology in this ultralight little spinning reel, and at only 175g I can see this becoming my favourite little lightweight reel very quickly!
My first impressions as I hold the reel in my hands are the obvious things. Great looks and finish, and how bloody light it is! The solid looking spool is something Daiwa doesn’t do a lot of but I really like the look of it on the Gekka air.
Now to decide on what rod and line to pair it with!
Keep an eye out for a full review soon.
