The Daiwa Seabass series fishing rods have been designed to be effective fish catching tools from the rocks, piers, estuaries or the beach. The Seabass series is the perfect fishing rod for the keen angler looking for a light weight rod with enough fish stopping power at a great price.
Power and Speed – A HVF graphite blank ensures that power and speed are ready to work in unison for beach and rock fishing anglers. Use of graphite also helps to preserve longevity when used in saltwater surroundings.
Forget Tangle – Any fishing rod with impressive materials can be rendered useless if it succumbs to fishing line tangle. Daiwa Australia has combated this threat in the Seabass range by adding Fuji Aluminium Oxide O ring guides which are less likely to induce tangling on a cast.
Varied Actions – These vary from medium-light to medium-heavy across the seven fishing rods that compromise the range. Line rating then begins with the 3-6kg 86ML Daiwa rods before rising to a whopping 10-20kg for the 1102XH.
Catch More – The Daiwa Seabass range you will find it excels at catching tailor or salmon from beaches on the longer models and whiting, flathead, bream and more in estuaries for the 8ft 6 inch model.
