Dauntless ®

I was on the American Angler in early August, 2022. We were fishing 75-125lb Bluefin Tuna. I was using my new Dauntless 400 with 65 braid and 60'b mono topshot. Rod was a Calstar GFGR800H About 10 miles SW of the West end of Catalina. In the late afternoon, a 99lb Bluefin picked up my fly-lined Sardine and almost spooled me as the fish ran into the wind as the boat drifted the other way. He turned around and it became the traditional Bluefin battle. The Dauntless 400 performed superbly. It was so great fighting the fish with such a little reel. It was truly a life experience.

My Dauntless is truly a fine piece of equipment.

Well-built, strong, powerful, easy to use and maintain. You need a Dauntless 600!!!

I have fished a Dauntless 600 Narrow for a number of years now for WAHOO and there is nothing like it. This reel great deal of torque and casts like a dream!!!
Try one and see for yourself.

I have owned and fished the Accurate Dauntless reels for the past several years and have found them to be
“True Workhorse Reels”! I recommend the 400 series for local and light to medium offshore Southern California fishing.

My personal favorites are the DX-2 500N and DX-2 600N.

I caught a 130# Bluefin in 10 minutes with the DX-2 600N (See photo).
