Designed and signed by the pros, the Daiwa Tatula Elite AGS Casting Rod puts a premier high-performance rod in your hands, ready to rumble. Each rod in the series is calibrated to a specific bass fishing technique, and represents today's most advanced rod-building technology. You'll feel it the moment you pick one up. This is an extremely lightweight rod, yet it lacks nothing for power and punching ability. The Tatula Elite AGS is built on Daiwa's SVF graphite blank with exclusive Nanoplus resin bonding, and finished using innovative X45 Bias technology, a 45 carbon fiber cross-weave that eliminates twist for incredible strength and sensitivity. The resulting high-density blank is extremely responsive, with near-instantaneous energy transfer from tip to butt. Daiwa has fitted this rod with AGS carbon-fiber guides; incredibly light and rigid, they offer unsurpassed sensitivity and smoothness. The sleek AirSensor reel seat is crafted from lightweight carbon and features full 360 contouring, for a compact, comfortable feel with extreme blank-to-hand feel. Finished with either cork or premium EVA handles.
