Ah, how the baitmonkey loves curiosity! The simple answer to your question is the Daiwa Pixy is both a reel and a rod.

But more commonly, it's the reel people are talking about. It's a JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) reel, so it's not sold here in like BPS, Cabela's, etc.

The Daiwa Pixy is considered one of, if not THE best finesse casting reel on the market with the ability to cast lures lighter than you'd even consider throwing. on most casting reels.

Here's the models.

2003 Orange Pearl


2004 Pearl Yellow (the one I want, another reason nofear insists I'm color blind )


2006-09 Airy Red


2004-09 Silver Mica


2010 PX68


These are going to cost you from about $200-250 for a used Silver Mica to $350-400 for a mint Pearl Yellow or about $450 for the new PX68.

The Pixy rods were built in 2003 and 2004 to match the respective reels and are VERY rare. These will run you $500+ if you can even find someone who has one and is willing to part with it.
