When Daiwa drops a new reel in the TATULA line, it always gets attention. During Project T 2025 SUMMER, pro angler Cody Meyer introduced the latest addition — the TATULA X TW 100 — and highlighted why this model deserves a spot in every angler’s arsenal.
Built for Power and Smoothness
Meyer explains that the new TATULA X TW 100 carries Daiwa’s Hyper-Drive Design, a refined gearing system engineered to transfer power more efficiently. That means anglers can feel confident cranking on fish buried in cover, while still enjoying the smooth, effortless retrieve the Tatula series is known for.
Long Cast Advantage
Casting distance has become a major focus for reel engineers, and Cody pointed out Daiwa’s Long Cast (LC) Concept as a core feature. By redesigning spool and line guide geometry, the TATULA X TW 100 helps anglers reach farther targets with less effort — a crucial advantage when covering water or chasing pressured bass.
Versatility Across Techniques
Rather than being pigeonholed into one role, Meyer emphasized the reel’s all-around balance. Whether it’s pitching into laydowns, dragging offshore structure, or working reaction baits, the TATULA X TW 100 is tuned to perform across multiple applications. Tournament anglers will especially appreciate not having to swap reels constantly for different techniques.
Tournament-Level Confidence
As with any piece of gear Cody runs, performance under pressure matters most. The TATULA X TW 100 was built with reliability and adaptability in mind — giving anglers confidence to fish longer, cast farther, and battle harder without second-guessing their reel.
Final Word
Cody Meyer summed it up best: the TATULA X TW 100 isn’t just another reel in the lineup, it’s a refined tool designed for tournament conditions, yet accessible for any angler wanting distance, smoothness, and strength in a compact package.
