{"product_id":"daiwa-26-ryoga","title":"26 Ryoga","description":"\u003ch2\u003eRound-Profile Baitcaster in 2 Variants\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eDaiwa 26 Ryoga\u003c\/em\u003e is a \u003cstrong\u003eround-profile baitcaster\u003c\/strong\u003e available in the \u003cstrong\u003e150 size\u003c\/strong\u003e as \u003cem\u003ePL\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eHL variants\u003c\/em\u003e, which differ primarily in their gear ratio and, as a result, their line retrieve. The \u003cem\u003ePL variant\u003c\/em\u003e runs a \u003cstrong\u003e5.3:1 gear ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e, giving a \u003cstrong\u003e59 cm line retrieve per turn\u003c\/strong\u003e. That \u003cstrong\u003elower gear ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e translates to \u003cstrong\u003emore cranking power\u003c\/strong\u003e, and lower-speed gearboxes are generally a touch more robust - making this variant \u003cstrong\u003eideal for high-resistance lures\u003c\/strong\u003e such as large crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and chatterbaits. The handle arm on the PL is also \u003cstrong\u003eslightly shorter at 90 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e, which contributes to a marginally lower overall weight. The \u003cem\u003eHL variant\u003c\/em\u003e is the \u003cstrong\u003espeed version\u003c\/strong\u003e of the \u003cem\u003e26 Ryoga 150\u003c\/em\u003e. Its \u003cstrong\u003e7.3:1 gear ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e delivers a \u003cstrong\u003eline retrieve of 82 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it the right choice wherever you need to pick up line quickly - heavy jerkbait fishing being a prime example. The \u003cstrong\u003eslightly longer double handle at 100 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e adds to the cranking speed, and \u003cem\u003ePower Light M Knobs\u003c\/em\u003e ensure an \u003cstrong\u003eoptimal grip\u003c\/strong\u003e. Both variants are \u003cstrong\u003ewell suited to large lures\u003c\/strong\u003e and work \u003cstrong\u003eparticularly well for zander and pike fishing\u003c\/strong\u003e. Because the \u003cem\u003e26 Ryoga 150 PL\/HL\u003c\/em\u003e is \u003cstrong\u003esaltwater-compatible\u003c\/strong\u003e, it also lends itself to applications such as pirking, slow jigging, and speed jigging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eImproved Durability, Smoother Running, and Longer Service Life Through Hyperdrive Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eDaiwa 26 Ryoga\u003c\/em\u003e packs in a considerable amount of technology. A standout feature is \u003cem\u003eHyperdrive Design\u003c\/em\u003e, a system made up of several individual technologies that work together to deliver \u003cstrong\u003eimproved durability\u003c\/strong\u003e, an \u003cstrong\u003eexceptionally smooth running action\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003elong service life\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cem\u003eHyper Armed Housing\u003c\/em\u003e refers to the body, which is machined from high-strength aluminium and is \u003cstrong\u003eparticularly resistant to flex and torque\u003c\/strong\u003e, keeping the gearbox firmly and securely seated at all times. Within the gearbox itself, \u003cem\u003eHyperdrive Digigear\u003c\/em\u003e technology uses larger teeth on the drive gear to create a \u003cstrong\u003enotably strong gear train\u003c\/strong\u003e that still delivers a \u003cstrong\u003every smooth and quiet running feel\u003c\/strong\u003e. The \u003cem\u003eHyper Double Support\u003c\/em\u003e system adds ball bearings on both sides of the pinion gear, ensuring that \u003cstrong\u003epower is transferred more efficiently and evenly\u003c\/strong\u003e. Rounding off the Hyperdrive Design package is \u003cem\u003eHyper Tough Clutch\u003c\/em\u003e, which provides \u003cstrong\u003eparticularly solid retention of the free-spool lever\u003c\/strong\u003e during the cast. Even on full-power casts, the lever cannot flip back inadvertently - something that could otherwise cost you lures - so you can cast with complete confidence and reach maximum distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOutstanding Braking Performance from Cast to Fight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCasting performance is handled by \u003cem\u003eMagforce-Z Boost\u003c\/em\u003e brake technology, which influences the centrifugal braking system. During the initial phase of the cast, resistance is increased to \u003cstrong\u003eprevent the spool from overrunning\u003c\/strong\u003e, resulting in \u003cstrong\u003eless backlash risk\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003emore relaxed casting experience\u003c\/strong\u003e. The \u003cem\u003eZero Adjuster\u003c\/em\u003e governs the spool brake and comes \u003cstrong\u003efactory-set for optimum casting performance\u003c\/strong\u003e - ideally, you should leave it as it is. The third braking system is the \u003cem\u003eATD drag\u003c\/em\u003e, which manages line release during the fight. It operates \u003cstrong\u003ewithout initial resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e, so even sudden close-range runs are met with a smooth, jerk-free line release. A particularly nice touch: when line is pulled from the spool, the \u003cem\u003eDrag Click Sound\u003c\/em\u003e kicks in, giving you the same audible feedback you'd expect from a fixed spool reel, so you always know when a fish is taking line and \u003cstrong\u003estay in full control\u003c\/strong\u003e. From the moment you cast to the end of the fight, you can rely on the braking systems of the \u003cem\u003e26 Ryoga 150 PL\/HL\u003c\/em\u003e to perform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Facts:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound-profile baitcaster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150 size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in multiple variants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHyperdrive Design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHyper Armed Housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHyperdrive Digigear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHyper Double Support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHyper Tough Clutch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagforce-Z Boost braking system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero Adjuster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eATD drag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrag Click Sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium star drag wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-light 36 mm spool in G1 duralumin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimised for strong braid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8+1 Magsealed ball bearings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaltwater-compatible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Daiwa","offers":[{"title":"26 Ryoga \/ 150PL","offer_id":53277030941018,"sku":"SF39007.1","price":479.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"26 Ryoga \/ 150HL","offer_id":53277030973786,"sku":"SF39007.2","price":479.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0548\/9197\/0669\/files\/daiwa-26-ryoga-main.jpg?v=1768287982","url":"https:\/\/www.pikeandperch.eu\/products\/daiwa-26-ryoga","provider":"HechtundBarsch.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
