Daiwa Theory Speci Barbel And Tench Rods

After extensive development and field testing we have designed six rods in the Theory stable that will cover the majority of situations likely to be faced. Beginning with the power float rods, there are two in the shape of a 14andrsquo; and 15andrsquo; edition. They have been designed to cope with a variety of fishing situations and species in mind. They are sensitive enough to pursue everything form big roach, grayling and chub in the depths of winter on tiny hooks, but are also at home trotting a large stick or bolo for hard fighting barbel thanks to the reserves of power in the butt. Both models offer a line rating range of 3-8lb. To cover a variety feeder fishing techniques we have developed 12andrsquo; and 13andrsquo; quiver tip rods – both featuring our EXT space saving feature. This allows both rods to be packed down at a shorter length, thanks to their telescopic butt sections making them easier to carry/store. Both models are also supplied with a mix of well-considered quiver tips. To assist bite detection when fishing direct we have included a selection of fibreglass quivers as light as 0.75oz on the 12andrsquo; and 1oz on the 13andrsquo; as well as a couple of carbon tips perfect for fishing in faster flow or when looking to fish for dropbacks. The tips also feature a handy UV paint finish to allow for easier bite detection in low light/darkness. In terms of power the 12andrsquo; is rated to handle up to 8lb line and weights of 50g, whilst the 13andrsquo; up to 10lb lines and 80g loads. They are perfect for a whole host of species and situations from light link ledgering for  perch, roach or chub down to fishing a traditional feeder approach for bream or tench on a stillwater. For those looking to target big tench or bream on a large gravel pits or big barbel on a river we have also developed two 12andrsquo; conventional andlsquo;avonandrsquo; top  specialist rods 12andrsquo; which are available in 1.75lb and 2lb options. These models can both handle mainlines up to 15lb, if required   have an amazing tip recovery and playing action. All rods are furnished with Stainless Steel Fuji Alconite guides, EVA/Cork handle with Armlock and the reel seat is large enough to accommodate many popular andlsquo;mini pitandrsquo; style reels.
