• Automatic Jigging Function: Programmable jigging patterns to entice deepwater bites automatically.
• Automatic Stop Feature: Can be programmed to stop winding when the lure reaches a set depth or the surface.
• Line Counter & Depth Memory: Provides precise depth readings and allows you to return to productive depths easily.
• Power Lever: Offers variable speed control for both retrieval and fighting fish.
• Aluminum Round Knob: Provides maximum contact and optimal rotation balance on the handle.
• ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag) Drag System: Uses an improved drag grease that exhibits low viscosity at rest but becomes more viscous immediately upon drag start-up, ensuring smooth and consistent drag performance.
• Spool Pin System: For use with braided lines to prevent slippage.

Intended Use:

The Daiwa Tanacom 800 is an excellent choice for:

• Deep Drop Fishing: Targeting species like swordfish, tilefish, grouper, snapper, and other deepwater bottom dwellers.
• Kite Fishing: Its speed, power, and large line guide make it highly effective for deploying and retrieving kite rigs.
• Heavy Jigging: While it has an auto-jigging function, its power and capacity also make it suitable for manual heavy jigging.
