The DAIWA Tatula series has become a globally recognized name in the world of bass baitcasting reels. Known for its accessible price range, the TATULA has earned its reputation as a reliable and high-performing reel. Now, it’s getting a major upgrade with the release of its third generation—complete with the highly anticipated SV-Boost braking system. This could very well mark the birth of another legendary reel!
Let’s take a closer look at what the third-generation DAIWA TATULA SV TW has to offer.
Featuring the SV-Boost Braking System
The SV-Boost braking system, which debuted with the 2021 Zillion, has finally made its way to the TATULA lineup. This innovative braking system, unique to DAIWA, adjusts the position of the inductor rotor on the spool during casting. It applies stronger braking at the start of the cast and reduces braking in the later stages as the spool slows down, enabling longer casting distances.
The Zillion SW TW and Zillion TW HD reels equipped with this system are renowned for being user-friendly and offering smooth, efficient performance—even for beginners. Despite being a few years old, these reels remain highly recommended. Now that the TATULA is equipped with the same braking system, expectations are high!
While the TATULA will likely use a shafted spool, unlike the Zillion, it will be exciting to see just how much the braking system has evolved.
Built on the HYPERDRIVE Design Concept
As expected, the new TATULA 2025 incorporates DAIWA’s HYPERDRIVE Design concept. This concept focuses on maintaining optimal performance for as long as possible, emphasizing durability and reliability. Reels built under this concept have consistently impressed with their robust designs, and this upgrade adds even more appeal to the new TATULA.
Specs and Release Date
As the year-end approaches, DAIWA follows its tradition of unveiling next year’s models by releasing them early. This time, the TATULA SV TW 2025 is leading the pack, with a release date scheduled for December 2024. It’s exciting to get hands-on with it ahead of time!
However, with more new models likely to be announced in 2025, it might be worth considering your budget carefully once the full lineup is revealed.
Regardless, the TATULA with SV-Boost is shaping up to be a reel worth the anticipation. We can’t wait to see how it performs!
