Nice reel for the money ,very smooth.I ordered the 4000 but would think the 5000 would of have been better for bass fishing .

These new Regal reels are really a great value and are exceptionally smooth. I am really liking mine. I have the 2500 size. I'm planning on getting another one. Maybe a 2000 size. They are a noticeable improvement over the Laguna series of reels by Diawa.

The reel is okay. Nice finish on it; but it's not very smooth. Can't complain too much for the price. You get what you pay for.I Just wish the listing was more specific. The listing showed a picture of a 2500 size reel which is what I expected to receive. A 2000 size is what showed up instead. No size was specified in the listing. But it will get the job done so I'll just keep it.

I purchased this reel after my 15+ year old abu Garcia spinner broke, so needless to say I was behind the times of modern reel technology. Comparing this reel to that one is night and day.To start off, the reel is as beautiful as a fishing reel can be, with an opalescent purple color befitting the regal name. It is very lightweight, with a carbon resin body instead of steel like my old reel.Reeling in your line is an absolute pleasure; with 10 ball bearings and Daiwa's proprietary airdrive rotor, it's hard to beat the smoothness at this price point.The reel is offered in several sizes. I ordered the 3000, which seems to be a good, all round size for trout, bass, etc. However, if you are looking for a reel for your ultralight build, consider the 1000 size for its blend of light weight, smoothness and tech at a competitive price point. Likewise, the reel is offered at up to a 6000 size for those targeting salmon and steelhead regularly.I have only had the pleasure of fishing with this reel about 10 times so far, but part of that was a 2 day lake trip where I fished with it all day. The reel is as easy to use as any other, and features a simple dial on top to set your drag. It functions same as any other spinnner, with a switch up front to allow rotation in both directions, a standard bail, and standard drag dial, but the performance is where the reel really shines. Drag is easy to set on the fly or in the middle of a fight (though not as simple as a baitcaster).If you are looking for an excellent all around reel, you cannot go wrong with daiwa regal Lt. It is my new go to reel for lake and river fishing.

This is a really nice reel, BUT..... I absolutely HATE the T shaped handle. I orderd the 2500 and expected it to have the regular handle but its got the rubber T shaped one. Ive been using it and trying to get used to it but .. its still not that great in my books and holds on to dust and dirt like crazy and doesn't feel good after while fishing with it. I'll have to look into getting another handle.
