Daiwa 20 Crest LT 5000-C

The Daiwa Crest LT 5000-C is a dependable, easy-spinning reel built on Daiwa's LT (Light & Tough) concept, delivering serious line capacity and smooth retrieve in a deceptively light, compact body. If you've been searching for a hard-working Daiwa Crest LT 5000 that punches well above its price, this is the size for distance and bigger fish.

Key features

• LT (Light & Tough) concept — a slimmer, lighter body and rotor balanced against real-world strength.
• 5000-C compact spool — high line capacity in a more compact frame for longer casts and heavier mainline.
• ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag) — smooth, progressive drag that starts quickly and runs consistently under load.
• Tough Digigear drive train for a clean, durable retrieve.
• Air Rotor design that spreads load evenly while keeping rotational weight down.
• Robust everyday workhorse build, ideal as a reliable do-it-all spinning reel.

Who it's for / UK use

The 5000-C size suits UK anglers who need reach and capacity: light beach and estuary work, float and feeder fishing for bigger species, pike and predator spinning, and general sea-lure sessions where casting distance and a stout line load matter. A sensible choice for anyone wanting one tough, smooth reel across several disciplines.
