The Daiwa 24 Certate LT5000D-XH is more than just a reel; it is a statement of engineering excellence. For decades, the Certate name has been synonymous with reliability, and the 2024 evolution takes that reputation to a whole new level. By incorporating Daiwas revolutionary Airdrive Design, this reel achieves a paradoxical balance: it is significantly lighter and more effortless to handle, yet stronger and more rigid than any of its predecessors.
At the heart of the 2024 Certate is the Aluminium Monocoque (MQ) body. This single-piece frame allows for a larger, more powerful Tough Digigear to be housed within a more compact exterior, providing a level of cranking power usually reserved for much larger, heavier reels. Whether you are battling a hard-fighting coastal predator or working high-resistance lures in heavy currents, the 24 Certate remains unyielding.
Airdrive Design: This four-pillar evolution (Rotor, Spool, Bail, and Shaft) shifts the weight balance toward the rear of the reel. This reduces initial inertia, giving you a weightless rotation and unparalleled lure control.
MQ Monocoque Body: The signature aluminium one-piece body eliminates the need for screws and side plates, creating a rigid, distorted-free housing that is incredibly water-resistant.
MagSealed Protection: Utilizing Daiwas space-age magnetic oil, the body and line roller are sealed against salt and sand, ensuring the 10 CRBB (Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings) stay smooth for years.
Saltiga-Level Internals: In this 5000 size, the pinions and drag systems are reinforced to Saltiga specifications, allowing you to push the reel to its absolute limits in demanding saltwater environments.
ATD Type-L Drag: A refined drag system that responds instantly to the initial strike, reducing line breakage during that critical first run without sacrificing stopping power.

Heavy Coastal Lure Fishing: The XH (Extra High Gear) ratio is perfect for retrieving lures at speed. Its a top-tier choice for targeting Bass, Pollack, and Coalfish from the shore or boat.
Inshore Saltwater: The 5000 size offers the perfect amount of line capacity and drag for medium-sized saltwater species, providing a big reel feel in a compact, 290g package.
Freshwater Pike & Salmon: If you are casting large lures for Pike or spinning for Salmon in fast-flowing rivers, the rigidity of the MQ body ensures the gears wont flex under the pressure of a heavy fish in the current.
The 5000D-XH is the speed demon of the range. With a massive 105cm retrieve per turn, its built for modern lure tactics where line pick-up speed is everything. If youre fishing in heavy surf or windy conditions, that extra speed allows you to stay in direct contact with your lure constantly. My advice? Pair this with a high-end 9ft-10ft lure rod. The rearward balance of the Airdrive Design makes the whole setup feel like an extension of your arm, reducing fatigue during those 8-hour sessions!
Q: Is the 24 Certate suitable for total saltwater immersion?
A: While the MagSealed technology offers the best protection against spray and salt air, no reel should be fully submerged. However, the MQ body and MagSealing make this one of the most water-resistant spinning reels on the market.
Q: What is the main difference between the 19 Certate and the 24 Certate?
A: The 24 model introduces the Airdrive Design. The new Airdrive Rotor is notably lighter, which reduces the force needed to start the handle turning. It feels significantly more responsive and airy than the previous generation.
Q: Does it come with a spare spool?
A: To maintain the highest quality standards and focus on the premium build, Daiwa does not include a spare spool with the Certate. High-quality spare spools are, however, available to purchase separately.
Q: Is it really Made in Japan?
A: Yes. The 24 Certate is manufactured in Daiwas flagship Japanese facility, ensuring the highest possible quality control and craftsmanship.
