Daiwa Tanacom Electric Reels

<Tanacom 500 & 750>

The TANACOM 500 and 750 are unique in their sizing. They are much smaller than typical electric reels. The Compact Designs open up new avenues in how electric reels are utilized. Because of the  reduced size and weight, the reels can be fished in the hand rather than in the rod holder. Both reels are Well Suited For Stand-Up Fishing Applications. Because they can fish lighter line, they are ideal for targeting tilefish, cod, halibut, lingcod or sand dabs. The TANACOM can also serve as a light kite reel. The reel is built around a stout Aluminum Frame that remains ridged even under heavy loads. A Variable Speed Control allows real time adjustments to the fish retrieval speed. Instructions are printed in English, a small but important detail. A Rugged Power Cord keeps you connected. The quality of these reels is evident in the Model 500 which utilizes 6 ball bearings and a roller bearing and can exert 33-pounds of drag pressure.

The Tanacom family has grown even bigger. With the all new Tanacom 1200 it was time to introduce a smaller size. The brand new Tanacom 800 is born with an astounding 660 yards of 80-pound-test Daiwa J-Braid – that’s 220 yards more than the Tanacom 750. It also has a 30 percent faster retrieval rate and 20 percent more power with 22lbs of max winding power. Maximum drag pressure has improved, too. Saltwater-sealed, it now stands at a trophy-turning 50 pounds. Kite-fishing fans will also appreciate the over-sized line guide aperture which is big enough to let swivels and large knots pass through, so go ahead and crank that rig right up to your rod tip. Still, the biggest improvement must be the new motor placement and gearing system. Previous Tanacom reels had the motor on the front which was sufficient.

The Tanacom 800, however, has the motor and new gearing hidden inside the spool itself – and that positioning really makes a difference in this reel’s outstanding performance. This new engineering design allows the same dependable motor we’ve had such great success with to generate even more power, speed and efficiency. Combine that with the rigid frame and side-plates, plus repositioned bearings that see less water exposure, and this reel is ready to rock and roll. It’s so fast, powerful, smooth, and saltwater tough that I can even see it pulling double-duty with swordfish, especially considering the outstanding line capacity. All the above changes are significant but big game, canyon and offshore fans will also love the Tanacom 800's ease of operation.

To that end, you’ll find an easy-to-read LED dot screen and sealed electronics package with selectable languages to prompt you through power assist settings and procedures including automatic stop and jigging features. Using the Tanacom 800, anglers can choose to fight fish with the Power Lever and Aluminum Round Knob or let the 12-volt power variable-speed assist do the heavy hauling. When you’re done for the day, simply wash down the reel without worrying about wetting the electronics because they are fully sealed.
