Daiwa Tanacom 1200 Electric Reel

It’s not often Daiwa releases a new electric dendoh reel and there’s arguably no name more famous in the category than TANACOM. A total overhaul from the ground up, TANACOM 1200 is a project half-a-decade in the making between Daiwa Japan engineers and teams within Australia and America.

Sporting a totally new design incorporating the motor housed inside the spool has given Daiwa engineers the ability to increase the efficiency of the powerful motor, the same reliable unit that’s been used on TANACOM 1000 in the past. Installed in this new frame, the motor generates even more power thanks to an improved drivetrain which has been totally reengineered with beefier gears and internal components to improve durability and minimise power loss.

More power is also accompanied by more speed, a feat often difficult to achieve since a faster retrieve inevitably means lower torque, the same principal as to why bikes are easier to ride up a hill in low gear as opposed to high. The faster retrieve speed of TANACOM 1200 is a great feature when deep dropping, as your ability to reposition or check baits is sped up dramatically. A side benefit of the new design is an Increased line capacity. With TANACOM 1200 now boasting a line capacity of PE8/1000m. 

Setting up the TANACOM 1200 is also now easier than ever, with a redesigned menu system which has been simplified and carefully designed to offer easy user experience for first time users and familiarity for long-time Daiwa dendoh fans. The Dot Monitor LCD screen has also been improved, with a brighter display and better viewing angles when wearing polarised sunglasses.

All areas of the reel design have been addressed with the development of TANACOM 1200. From small quality of life improvements like the aluminium ball knob, to hugely functional changes like the increased speed & power. 

TANACOM has continually set the benchmark for quality and value for money in the electric reel space and the new TANACOM 1200 is set to elevate the bar once again. Dominate the deep with TANACOM 1200.

The Daiwa J-Braid x8 Multi-Colour is a high-performance, 8-strand braided fishing line designed for superior strength, smooth casting, and accurate depth measurement. Made in Japan, it is a popular choice for anglers requiring a versatile, high-quality, and cost-effective line. 

Combo Breakdown

If you're looking for a serious electric setup with plenty of lifting power and line capacity, this combo is built for exactly that. The Daiwa Tanacom 1200 is the heart of the setup and it’s one of the most popular electric reels on the market for a reason. Daiwa completely redesigned this model with the motor positioned inside the spool and a stronger drivetrain, which means the reel transfers power much more efficiently. The result is more torque, faster retrieve speeds and huge line capacity — perfect for hauling heavy rigs or solid fish back to the boat without burning your arms out.

We’ve matched it with the Daiwa Saltist Dendoh 6'4" 80–200lb swivel tip rod, which is built to handle exactly this kind of work. It’s got the backbone needed for big sinkers and heavy electric setups, while the swivel tip helps reduce line twist and keeps everything running smoothly when you're dropping and retrieving all day.

To finish the setup, it’s spooled with Daiwa J-Braid x8 80lb Multi-Colour, which is ideal for electric reel fishing. The 8-strand braid is strong, smooth through the guides and the colour changes make it easy to keep track of how much line you’ve got out when fishing different depths.

Overall this combo gives you a seriously capable electric setup that can handle both shallow reef fishing and deeper offshore drops. Electric reels like this are perfect for taking the strain out of winding heavy sinkers and big rigs all day. They’re great for long sessions on the water, older anglers, anyone dealing with shoulder or arm injuries, or anglers who’d simply rather let the reel do the hard work while they enjoy the fishing.
