23' Exceler LT - Next Generation - with Airdrive design!
Thanks to the new lightweight Airdrive rotor, the starting resistance is reduced during retrieval. The total weight of the reel decreases, and due to the weight reduction in the front part, the balance shifts towards the rear of the reel. This leads to better balance on the rod, improved sensitivity, and better casting performance. The reel body made of Zaion V material provides a deformation-resistant housing for Tough Digigear and a permanently smooth operation. The new Airdrive bail is lighter than before, extremely durable, and significantly reduces the risk of tangles in combination with the new bail arm.
The ATD Type-L drag system provides smooth and optimized line release under load without high starting resistance, providing the necessary security when battling large specimens. The aluminum Longcast ABS spool has a special spool edge that contributes to longer casting distances. The Twistbuster III design at the line roller is perfect for use with braided lines: the line does not compress during retrieval, resulting in less tangles. The CNC-cut aluminum handle is screwed into the body for immediate contact.

What is gear ratio?
The term gear ratio, or 'gear ratio' in English, is a value that indicates how many laps around the reel’s spool the line goes per crank. A normal gear ratio is around 5.0:1 and up, meaning the spool rotates five times per crank. A fast gear ratio (high speed) is typically around 6.5:1, meaning 6.5 spool rotations per crank. Such a reel can be great when fishing for sea trout on the coast, as trout often like a bit of speed on the lure. In modern spin fishing, there are also reels with super-fast gear ratios, over 7.5 spool rotations per crank, used with certain lures that benefit from being fished very quickly.
Are you a beginner and want better control over the lure you’ve cast? Use a reel with a slightly lower gear ratio, around 5.0:1.
