This exciting new rod from Daiwa was designed by some of Daiwa's top California pros in conjunction with one of their top salesmen. The result is a fantastic rod with a multitude of uses. This is one of the best rods we've ever handled for throwing frogs and rats in the slop. The Daiwa Light and Tough Frog Rod features a fast tip that will load up and cast your bait way back on the mats, but it also has plenty of backbone to pull the fish out of the rough stuff. The highly responsive graphite used in the Tough and Light rods will allow you to set the hook with authority, one of the keys to consistently landing frog fish. This rod will also double as a perfect pitching and flipping rod with strength and sensitivity, and the fast tip will help you control your cast for pinpoint accuracy when pitching. The positioning of the guides along the blank was designed to accommodate anglers who want to use braided line with their frogs. The original design was upgraded with more guides added and repositioned to spread the strain of heavy braid over the length of the blank. Whether you use this rod for casting frogs on the mats, pitching Sweet Beavers into cover, or flipping jigs, one of the features you'll really appreciate after a long day on the water is just how light this rod is. Put one of Daiwa's ultra-modern cutting edge reels on this rod and you'll have a lightweight, ergonomic package that will allow you to fish all day with very little hand and arm fatigue. We believe the Daiwa Tough and Light Frog Rod will be a perfect complement to the rest of your rods and will soon become one of your favorites.
