Daiwa Tanacom 1200 Power Assist Reel - TANACOM1200

The Tanacom family has a new big brother. The all new Tanacom 1200 holds and astounding 1,100 yd of 80 lbs test Daiwa J-Braid. That's 220 yd more than the Tanacom 1000. It also has a 30 % faster retrieval rate at a quick 140 m (459') per minute, and 20 % more power with 22 lbs of max winding power. Maximum drag pressure has improved, too. Saltwater-sealed, it now stands at a trophy-turning 50 lbs. 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 1200, 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 1200'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. Using the Tanacom 1200, anglers can choose to fight fish with the Power Lever and Aluminum Round Knob or let the 12V 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.
