Daiwa
<p><strong>DAIWA 26 OUTRAGE MLT (Monster Loves Tentacle)</strong> is a specialised rod designed for vertical live-bait fishing, targeting powerful bottom-dwelling predators such as dentex, groupers and large greater amberjack. Developed for techniques including Palluccella, Fireball, Vertical Ball and Zoka, it combines the sensitivity required to control the bait with the power needed to handle demanding fights.</p>
<p>The concept brings together characteristics traditionally found in two different rod categories: the lightweight feel and manoeuvrability of Slow Jigging rods and the strength of Big Game boat rods. The result is a range designed to maintain precise bait control in vertical fishing while providing the power reserve required to tackle large predators, including fish in the 10–20 kg range.</p>
<p>HVF carbon blank and Daiwa technologies</p>
<p>The <strong>1.98 m blank</strong> is made from HVF (High Volume Fiber) carbon with a low resin content, combining a lightweight construction with responsiveness and structural strength.</p>
<p>Its strongly progressive action allows the tip to register bait movements and subtle bites, while the powerful lower section comes into play when pressure needs to be applied during the fight. This working profile is particularly useful when fishing vertically for bottom predators, where maintaining control is essential to prevent fish from returning to the seabed.</p>
<p>Blank stability is enhanced by <strong>X45</strong> and <strong>BRAIDING X</strong> technologies. X45 helps reduce blank twisting during retrieval and fighting, while BRAIDING X reinforces the butt section to improve rigidity and control when using heavy sinkers and tackling powerful fish.</p>
<p>Three power ratings for different fishing conditions</p>
<p>The baitcasting range includes three models, <strong>No.4, No.5 and No.6</strong>, with maximum casting weights of 200 g, 300 g and 400 g respectively. These options allow anglers to select a rod according to fishing conditions, sinker weight and target fish size.</p>
<p><strong>No.4 – Max 200 g</strong></p>
<p>The lightest and most sensitive model in the range, designed for anglers who prioritise precise bait presentation and easy handling. Its AIRSENSOR Reel Seat provides a lightweight, ergonomic grip. Suitable reel pairings include compact baitcasting reels such as the PT300 and SALTIGA 300, as well as small electric reels with a JOG lever, such as the LEOBRITZ 200J. This model can also be used with soft plastic lures.</p>
<p><strong>No.5 – Max 300 g</strong></p>
<p>The No.5, described in the supplied specifications as belonging to the up-to-15 kg class, is the most versatile option for targeting large predators, including groupers. Its more powerful blank can be paired with round saltwater baitcasting reels such as the SALTIGA 10, 15 and 35, or medium-sized electric reels including the SEABORG 300J, LEOBRITZ 300J and TANACOM S300J.</p>
<p><strong>No.6 – Max 400 g</strong></p>
<p>The most powerful model in the range, developed for larger predators and demanding fishing conditions. It is designed to work with large electric reels such as the SEABORG 500J and TANACOM S500J. The Fuji Palming Support Reel Seat provides dedicated support for this setup, helping maintain stability during strenuous fights.</p>
<p>Reel seat and components</p>
<p>Each model features a reel seat selected according to the rod's power rating and intended reel size. The No.4 uses the lightweight, ergonomic AIRSENSOR Reel Seat. The No.5 is fitted with larger Fuji reel seats suitable for more powerful baitcasting reels and medium-sized electric reels. The No.6 features a Fuji Palming Support Reel Seat designed for large electric reels.</p>
<p>The rod is fitted with a <strong>non-slip EVA handle</strong>, providing a secure grip even with wet hands. The guides are supplied by Fuji, with a SiC tip guide and Fuji KW Alconite guides along the blank. These components complete a setup designed for demanding saltwater fishing and heavy loads.</p>
<p>In addition to the baitcasting models, the range includes a <strong>spinning version with a casting weight of up to 250 g</strong>, for anglers who prefer a fixed-spool reel.</p>
<p>The DAIWA 26 OUTRAGE MLT is a specialist range for vertical live-bait fishing, combining bait sensitivity, handling comfort and progressive power, with different configurations to suit a variety of approaches to targeting large predators.</p>
