When Aussie fishos need a baitcaster that can take a beating and keep delivering session after session, Daiwa’s Tatula range always stands out. The latest releases of the 25 Tatula 150 and 200, are the most advanced models yet and are both now available at your local Tackle World store!
Backed by Daiwa’s new HYPERDRIVE DESIGN, both reels bring serious strength, smoothness and casting power to the table, whether you’re targeting barra in the north, cod out west or anything tough in between. If you’re ready to upgrade your baitcaster, here’s why these two reels are leading the charge in 2025.
What’s New in the 25 Tatula Series
Both the 25 Tatula 150 and 25 Tatula 200 represent major leaps forward thanks to Daiwa’s HYPERDRIVE DESIGN, which is built around four core components:

Best Conditions & Target Species
These reels are designed to cover a wide range of Aussie fishing scenarios.

Why Tackle World Rates It
From store staff to local pros, the TATULA name carries serious weight. The 25 Tatula 150 remains a favourite for its balance of strength and castability, especially for those fishing tight estuary systems or moving between species.
The 25 Tatula 200 is quickly becoming a must-have for anglers chasing bigger targets. With its deep spool, strong drag and high torque handle, it gives you confidence when you’re hooked up to something serious.
The inclusion of HYPERDRIVE tech in both models is a game-changer. These reels feel smoother out of the box and continue to perform even after seasons of use.
