The Lexa 500H steps up where standard baitcasters leave off, pairing a lightweight aluminum frame and sideplate with Daiwa's MAGFORCE LC-Concept spool and magnetic braking system for clean, controlled casts across a wide range of lure weights and live-bait presentations. A 7.6:1 gear ratio and swept handle design keep retrieve power high while minimizing wasted motion, and the Ultimate Tournament Drag system backs it all up with carbon drag discs and DSG505 grease for smooth, consistent pressure under load.

Features:

• EVA Knob: Ergonomic EVA material maintains positive grip and contact in wet conditions for all-day comfort.
• MAGFORCE Braking System: Daiwa's magnetic cast control dials spool rotation speed through a magnetic field, reducing backlash without sacrificing distance.
• Swept Handle: Daiwa's exclusive swept handle geometry positions the paddles closer to the rod's centerline, reducing wobble during the retrieve for a more efficient, powerful crank.
• Ultimate Tournament Drag (UTD): Impregnated carbon drag discs paired with proprietary DSG505 grease significantly increase effective drag power while lowering start-up inertia for a smooth, steady feel.
