Its overall feel is enhanced through Daiwa’s Infinite Anti-Reverse which provides quick engagement of the drive gear and drag system. Finished with 3 stainless steel ball bearing and 1 anti-reverse roller bearing, the RS 500 is ready to tackle the small creeks, rivers, and ponds where featherweight lunkers call home.

PIN THROUGH HANDLE

An inline, pin-through handle assembly makes handle removal and installation simple and quick, with the handle inserted through the reel then secured into place with a threaded screw cap.

INFINITE ANTI REVERSE

Daiwa's advanced system that limits rearward backplay handle movement to almost zero for solid hooksets with less shock to the reel. The result is the elimination of handle slap-back and the unwanted release of line.

COMPOSITE BODY

Light, strong, and inexpensive, lightweight composite is a corrosion free material ideal for entry level and budget reels.
