Thread: Thoughts? Diawa Lexa 400

I'm considering a new baitcaster to add some diversity to my collection.. Has anyone ever used a Diawa Lexa 400? The model I am looking at has a bait clicker and has a 5.5:1 gearing..

looking to pair it with a tica wreck series rod....

I have no idea what the lexa baitcaster is like, I have a lexa 3500 spinning reel and it's held up very well for several years. Apples and oranges I know, but in my experience Daiwa usually makes pretty good gear.

thanks... i've got more spinning reels than I can use.. i'm always sitting around deciding which ones to bring... My only baitcasters are keepsakes and get used lightly in freshwater and such. I figured IF I put braid on, then a topshot of 15lb mono, I should be able to have a couple hundred yards of line... just wanted to ask around before I drop 200 bucks on another reel.... especially since I have no experience with Daiwa.
