| I dont have one yet so I don't have picture. It is a low profile reel that looks somewhat similar to the Shimano curado. |

| I too have been looking for reviews but its kinda hard to find them since this reel is so new. From what I've heard its suppossed to be a pretty good reel for the money so I went ahead and ordered it although its on backorder and im yet to recieve it. |

Location: Ogden, UTAH 10 minutes from pineview reservoir | i had the daiwa lexa, decided to buy it and give it a try! awesome, well built reel. I threw everything from double 8s to hell hounds. Casted great and was built solid! no complaints at all. Gonna give the curado a run for its money! cant go wrong with the the lexa especially at under $200
Daiwa scored on this reel
great real for smaller musky baits |

You just made me feel alot better about purchasing this reel! I bought it without even holding it since I couldn't find one in stores. Hope its as good as it sounds. |

| I bought one and after the first use I quickly bought another. I use the one for throwing pounders and have not had any issues with it I love it. its the fastest low profile left hand reel you can get which is why i pick it up. Its upper light and fits in your palm awesome. |

The Lexa is a great reel for smaller baits and Size 8 blades and smaller, I have 2 of them and I'm selling one in the For Sale sec, BUT POUNDERS ????????????? |

Location: Bloomingdale, IL | I bought the 300 hs-p two days ago and I will say I will be buying another. Its extremely smooth and casts like a dream. I threw a 6" phantom, double 8s and a few mag 8s. It will rip 8s like a dream, I didn't try any 10s but I think it will do it, but that's what my winch is for. All in all don't be shy about dropping the cash for this reel. |
