Daiwa 27 Silver Creek MQ LT: A Closer Look at the Two Sizes

A closer look at what’s coming, what makes it different and what to know before you choose.

Daiwa has introduced the 27 Silver Creek MQ LT in its 2027 range, and European dealer Nastrahy lists both sizes for preorder. There’s no exact launch day or confirmed US release date in the sources we’ve checked. Here’s a first look at the two versions.

A small reel with a clear purpose

Light lures, fine line and trout are the focus here. The shallow aluminum spool and ATD Type-L drag sit alongside a screw-in aluminum handle and cork knob. Don’t confuse this 27-series reel with the older 2022 Silvercreek MQ LT that still appears in many search results.

Which size fits your setup?

Model Weight Ratio Line retrieved per turn Article
2000S-H 170 g 5.8:1 76 cm 10308-205
2500S-XH 185 g 6.2:1 87 cm 10308-255

The 2000S-H saves 15 g. The 2500S-XH takes up 11 cm more line per turn, a useful difference to consider when choosing your retrieve speed. These figures describe the catalog models, not a hands-on test.
