The new Daiwa BG MQ Offshore Spinning Reel is part of a new reel series from Daiwa. This new reel series will be a game changer for rugged, affordable, heavy-duty spinning reels. The BG MQ series are packed with new technology, delivering superior performance and force.
Key technologies
Monocoque
The reel’s one-piece frame eliminates the use of traditional two-piece body & sideplate construction. The single piece body utilises a screw-in engine plate to house the main gear, reducing flex and twist under load creating a sealed mechanism. The elimination of the side plate also has allowed for a more compact body design. MQ technology not only makes the BG MQ stronger & better sealed, but also more compact.
ABS Longcast
Compared to conventional spools, the LC-ABS has been shown to increase the average flight distance by approx. 5% due to its reduced weight and modified shape.
ATD Drag
Daiwa’s Automatic Tournament Drag uses an improved drag grease that exhibits a low viscosity at rest, yet becomes more viscous immediately after drag start up. This reduces initial drag start-up inertia and combined with the structural changes of the ATD Drag System results in a smoother drag from the initial hook up.
Metal Alloy Body
Rock solid in strength and performance, alloy is tailor made for rough and rigged conditions and allows a reel to be created that is light, yet strong, and supremely rigid and highly corrosion resistant.
