The Daiwa CR80HS CR Baitcasting Reel is a compact, lightweight reel designed for bass anglers who demand performance, comfort, and control at an affordable price. Constructed with a carbon resin frame and side plates, the CR80HS offers a perfect blend of strength and reduced weight, enhancing its durability without sacrificing palmability. The ergonomic profile and reduced frame-to-spool ratio allow for excellent in-hand comfort, making it a favorite for anglers who spend long hours on the water casting and retrieving.

Equipped with a 32mm double anodized aluminum spool, the CR80HS delivers smooth and efficient line management, while the magnetic cast control system allows for quick on-the-fly adjustments to fine-tune casting performance based on lure weight and wind conditions. This results in fewer backlashes and more accurate, consistent casting, especially in tight cover. The high-speed 7.5:1 gear ratio provides a line retrieve of nearly 30 inches per turn, ideal for burning spinnerbaits, working jigs quickly, or keeping up with fast-moving fish.

The CR80HS includes a 90mm swept handle with soft paddle knobs, offering improved torque and grip when cranking in fish. With a total of 7+1 ball bearings and a max drag of 15 lbs, this reel has the smoothness and power needed to handle larger fish without compromise. Whether you’re flipping heavy cover or bombing long casts on open water, the Daiwa CR80HS delivers high-end features and reliability in a palm-sized, budget-friendly package.
