Daiwa – TD Sol Light Tackle Rods
Daiwa released quite a few new rod models this year at AFTA, and brought back some oldies like the TD Sol. This range has had a few incarnations over the past decade, and this one looks like it is going to be a good one.
Daiwa are targeting the mid range market with these 14 new models (8 x spin, 4 x baitcast, 2 x swimbait), with RRP’s starting at $159.
The new HVF nanoplus and x45 blank of the TD Sol is very similar to the new TD Hyper series, but with some slightly better fuji guides, and a wider range of rods.
More info can be found HERE on the Daiwa Website.
