Daiwa Fuego LT vs Daiwa Regal LT

The Fuego has a bigger main gear (more durable), a dual bearing pinion support (one bearing at the top of the pinion gear, one on the bottom) which is a more durable design and it makes the reel smoother under load, it’s overall more refined feeling (smoother, lighter, less play between parts) and it has a system that keeps water out of the guts of the reel (magseal). A way better choice at around $100.

And yeah, I mean it feels pretty light. First thing we're going to need to do is tighten that guy down. You can take this off. Yeah, you can take this...

In a similar price range I would look more at something like a Daiwa Fuego LT at 7.2oz, or if you can swing a bit more cost, the Tatula at only 6.2 oz. A couple oz here or there doesn’t seem like a lot but it can make a big difference after a day of snapping baits

More bearings, smooth drag, light weight. I use it in light salt water fishing, looking to buy another
