Description
26GEKKABIJIN BF TW PE SPECIAL (26月下美人 BF TW PE SPECIAL) is a PE-line-only baitfinesse casting reel from Daiwa's GEKKABIJIN light saltwater game line, which has targeted aji and large mebaru since its 2005 debut.
Built for low-trajectory pitching of micro lures and improved casting distance on PE line, it pairs an SS MAGFORCE-specific 28mm G1 duralumin PE-only spool with a TWS level wind for maximum line-release performance. A magnesium frame and gear-side plate with an aluminum set plate keep the reel compact and light, and HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR delivers a smooth retrieve at an 8.5 gear ratio. A drag-out click supports fine tension control by sound.
Recommended for jig heads of 0.8–5g; the PE-only spool is rated for PE0.4号-50m and is not designed for nylon or fluorocarbon line. Available in 8.5R and 8.5L handle configurations.

FAQ
Is the JDM version different from the US or AU release?
Often, yes. JDM releases can differ in spool depth, weight and handle options, and the Japanese lineup is usually broader — including sizes and models never exported.
Will spare spools from my current reel fit?
Spool compatibility is per generation, not per model name. Check the model year and size code against the spool before buying — the model code is listed on every reel.
What size should I choose?
As a ladder: 1000–2500 for finesse and light lines, 2500–4000 for general lure work, 4000 and up for heavy or salt duties. Match the size to your line and water first.
PG, HG or XG — what's the difference?
PG is a slow, powerful gear for cranking. HG is the all-round high gear. XG is the fastest retrieve for picking up slack quickly — higher speed trades away winding torque.
What warranty or service do imported reels have?
There is no local service centre for a JDM reel. Repairs and servicing go back to Japan, usually with a fee and a multi-week turnaround — weigh that before you buy.
Can I still get spares for older JDM-only models?
Often, yes — Japanese makers keep parts lists for older models, and some spares are stocked here. See the spares and custom parts collection, or ask before you order.
