Daiwa Longbow DF X45 Carp Rods –

• Truly excelling in field testing, they have managed to harness high ‘potential energy’ for casting by utilising the butt diameter as well as the material to deliver increased loading. However, the medium taper sees that they release rapidly but with less eye-watering speed of the Basia. This recovery is enhanced by the weight saving from the minima 4 guides.
• The report from Danny Fairbrass read “Just hit the clip at 160 yards with a 4oz lead on the prototype 3.75. I could give it more as it will take it. They feel light, crisp and powerful; well done!”
• In addition to the range, they also offer a Floater Special, a Spod and Spod n Marker model.
