Daiwa Tanacom 800

DAIWA TANACOM 800

It’s not often that Daiwa releases a new electric reel and there’s probably no name more recognized in the category than Tanacom. A total overhaul from the ground up, the Tanacom 800 is a project half a decade in the making between Daiwa’s engineers in Japan and their test fishermen in Australia and America.

With a completely new design, having the motor inside the spool has allowed to increase the efficiency of the powerful motor, the same reliable motor used in the predecessor Tanacom 1000 before. The engine generates even more power thanks to an improved drivetrain that has been completely redesigned with stronger gears and internal components to improve durability and minimize power loss.

The faster retrieve speed of the Tanacom 1200 is a great feature when fishing in really deep water, as your ability to control baits and set new drifts is greatly streamlined. A major benefit of the new design is also an increased line capacity.

Setting up the Tanacom 800 is now also easier than ever, with a redesigned menu system that has been simplified and carefully designed to offer a simple user experience. The LCD display has also been improved, with a brighter screen and better visibility even with polarized sunglasses.

Tanacom has consistently set the benchmark for quality and value for money in the electric rolling space and the new model raises the bar again.
