Shaggie Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 I picked up a Cabelas Arachnid 100H for pretty cheap today. The reason it was so cheap is because it's missing the cast control cap as Daiwa calls it. I cannot find this reel in the Daiwa parts breakdowns anywhere. It's labeled as an Arachnid 100H but the tag on it says 100HL. Is this the same reel as a Tatula 100HL? Are the parts interchangeable? Where can I get a cap? Did I make a $50 mistake? Quote
TylerT123 Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 It looks like it’s a Daiwa Tatula Type-R but differently colored and branded. I’d look at Tatula Type-R parts. 1 Quote

The cast control knob is part J00-4702, you can call Daiwa to buy the part, or go here: https://www.mikesreelrepair.com/j00-4702-cast-control-cap/ Great reel with a lifetime warranty (even for a rebranded Cabela's item) for $50.

Super User rippin-lips Posted June 26, 2018 Super User Posted June 26, 2018 It’s a first gen tatula type r that was made for Cabela’s by Daiwa. Call Daiwa and speak with Thelma. She will get you all squared away. There’s also options for aftermarket cast caps too. 1 Quote

When I've needed smaller inexpensive parts they often send them to me for no charge. That's how you keep customers Quote
