Engineered with Daiwa renowned HyperDrive Design, the Tatula Elite Pitch Flip delivers exceptional durability, smoother gear engagement, and increased cranking power. The system incorporates Hyper Drive Digigear, Hyper Double Support, Hyper Armed Housing, and Hyper Tough Clutch, ensuring long-lasting performance even after thousands of repetitive pitching and flipping presentations. The rigid aluminum frame maintains perfect gear alignment under heavy loads, providing consistent power when fighting large bass in challenging environments.

Designed specifically for short, controlled casts, the reel features a lightweight precision-machined aluminum spool that starts quickly and provides excellent control when pitching jigs, Texas rigs, creature baits, and compact soft plastics into tight targets. Daiwa advanced Magforce magnetic braking system offers easy brake adjustments, helping anglers minimize backlash while maintaining pinpoint casting accuracy throughout the day.

One of the reels defining characteristics is its high-speed 8.1:1 gear ratio, which retrieves approximately 34 inches of line per handle turn. This rapid line pickup allows anglers to quickly recover slack after a presentation, efficiently reposition for the next pitch, and maintain better control when bass strike immediately after the bait enters the water. The fast retrieve also improves hook-setting power by enabling anglers to remove slack almost instantly before driving the hook home.

Daiwa innovative T-Wing System (TWS) further enhances casting efficiency by reducing line friction during the cast while providing smooth, even line management during retrieves. This design improves casting consistency and accuracy, especially when making hundreds of short, repetitive presentations around heavy cover.

Built with comfort in mind, the Tatula Elite Pitch Flip features an ergonomic low-profile design that fits naturally in the palm for superior handling during all-day fishing sessions. The swept handle with oversized soft-touch knobs delivers increased leverage and a secure grip, even when fishing with wet hands or applying maximum pressure to extract fish from thick vegetation.

The powerful Ultimate Tournament Drag (UTD) system provides smooth, consistent drag performance, giving anglers the confidence to battle trophy-sized bass without hesitation. Combined with corrosion-resistant bearings and premium internal components, the reel delivers reliable performance season after season in demanding freshwater environments.

Whether you’re flipping heavy jigs into matted vegetation, pitching soft plastics around docks, punching hydrilla, or targeting bass hidden in flooded timber, the Daiwa Tatula Elite Pitch Flip Casting Reel offers the speed, power, precision, and durability required for serious tournament anglers and dedicated bass fishermen. Its specialized design makes it one of Daiwa top-performing reels for close-range power fishing where fast line pickup, casting accuracy, and dependable strength are essential.
