Questions about Daiwa Tatula 200 TWS Baitcasting Reel

Is the left handed description for a left hand retrieval or a left handed person? I’m right hand dominant and reel with my left hand

Answer: This one I bought for my father who feels with his right hand. I am right hand dominant like u but I feel left handed like u. This model is for right handed reeling...

Answer: LH is left hand retrieval, I am right handed but use LH retrieval (handle is on the left side)

Answer: Left hand retrieve im a righty and reel with my left too

Answer: It’s for retrieving with the left hand and holding the rod with right hand.

i want to put 30 pound braided line on this.. how much yards will i get about roughly ? thanks

Answer: 175-200 yards probably

Answer: 185 yards

Is it the T wing system

Answer: Yes... I believe ALL Tatula’s are.

Answer: Yes it is. TWS

Is for saltwater ?

Answer: They make a "Coastal" version specific for saltwater.

Answer: You can. I'm using it for fresh water fishing

how much 15 pound mono would it hold

Answer: About 185 yards according to what I have read. Since a good cast for me would be about 40 yards I have never had to much worry about it.

Answer: Around 110 120 yards

can this be use saltwater?

Answer: Yes it can be used for salt water, just do not dip it in saltwater, which goes for any reel.

How much 65lb braid will this reel hold wqnt to use it for my frog rod?

Answer: Not sure... have not tried putting braid on my tatulas yet. Just check to see what your 65# braid is size equivalent to, should give you a close ballpark figure.

How many yards of 65lb braid will this hold

Answer: Sorry, have not tried braid on the 200 series

How much line did it fit ?

Answer: LOL... depends on the size line you are using, I put 12lb fluorocarbon line (trilene) and it held approximately 80yards, then again I did not max it out.

Answer: Over 200 yards of 12 lb test

How much drag does it have

Answer: 13 lbs.

Can anyone confirm where these are being manufactured?

Answer: I assume Japan.

Does levelwind disengage on cast (free spool)?

Answer: Yes it disengages when you cast which helps reduce backlash..

can i use for jigging ?

Answer: You can... but it’s not the best Tatula for that. I would and do use Tatula Flipping Reel. Less line, and smooth. Great for flipping & pitching a jig.

Answer: Yes you can. I have 50lb braided line for my jigs.

Answer: Yes, a good, all around reel.

Will this reel hold up in saltwater?

Answer: Not sure, I’m using it for freshwater, goto the Daiwa website, I’m sure that question was answered there.

What are the drag specs for your tatula 200hsl? is it the earlier model with 13.2 lbs, or the late model with 11 lbs?

Answer: I have never paid much attention, although I am sure I knew at one time. I just check a reel by pulling some drag to ensure it isn’t so tight it breaks the line and go with it.

Product reviews of Daiwa Tatula 200 TWS Baitcasting Reel

Dodger Smith : Amazing product!

Amazing product! Feels great in the hand and minimal backlashes.

Jeremy : Great 200 size reel

Great caster with plenty of torque. Great for big line applications. I would definitely purchase again.

A C : Great swim bait and heavy lure reel

I got this used and on sale for $110 and this is the best price anywhere. Throws my big a rigs and heavy lures with ease.

Amazon Customer : Smooth and Good lookin

Just got my tatula today, came in three days, faster than I expected. Box was packed well and nothing was broken. Reel is super smooth and looks absolutely beautiful. Only bad thing I can say is I wish the 200 size was more of a 300 size but I was able to fit 100 yards of 25lb floro anyway. Can’t wait to use this bad boy.

Josh : Solid smooth reel

I originally had the Lew’s Tournament MP but wasn’t a fan of the composite side plates and it felt too light. I already use daiwa spinning reels which I love so I figured I would try the Tatula out.

I gotta say I really like the reel a lot. Its very smooth and rigid. It fits in my hand well and does hold quite a bit of line. It does have all aluminum external parts except for the star drag that is composite which I don’t care for. I ordered an SLP works star drag which is aluminum and fits perfectly. It was about $50 but it’s nice to have a solid aluminum reel. I attached photos and part numbers.

The t wing system does prevent your leader knot from entering the reel but if you shorten you leader it’s not a big deal.

A C : Great swim bait and heavy lure reel

I got this used and on sale for $110 and this is the best price anywhere. Throws my big a rigs and heavy lures with ease.

Jason : Great reel

Great reel, i wanted the arachnid from cabelas but they stopped making it. The arachnid was modeled after this reel so it's what I ordered. The tatula was everything I expected it to be

Partfinder : Excellent

12 out of 10, works great, buying a second!

floyd noack : Good beginner baitcaster

Love this thing. Great reel

Dodger Smith : Amazing product!

Amazing product! Feels great in the hand and minimal backlashes.
