Daiwa Emcast Surf FS Rods

Tell Me About It

The Daiwa Emcast FS Rod features a DPS style fixed reel seat, premium grade carbon blanks, and stainless frame guides with oxide rings. Ring spacing is set for fixed spool reels, while aluminium joint rings give a superior quality join on this sectional sea fishing rod, which is available in 13ft, 14ft, or 15ft, all featuring 3oz-7oz casting, which should take your rig and leader well beyond the breakers, and bring you in some good-sized fish. 

The use of a fixed spool reel makes this a suitable rod for those with limited experience, confidence, or skill in sea fishing, as fixed spool reels, whilst still effective, particularly when fished from the shore or a pier, are much easier to handle than the saltwater angling specific multiplier reels, which are designed to give you the maximum casting capacity, and the ability to play large fish freely and safely. If you’re fishing for large, feisty fish from a boat, a multiplier reel is more or less essential, to avoid a fish in play crashing against the side of the boat and injuring itself.

With an ergonomic EVA rear grip, this rod is comfortable to handle all day long.

What Discipline Is It Designed For?

A quality saltwater angling rod that will serve anglers of all levels of experience well as they explore fixed spool sea fishing.

Why Should I Buy It?

This is a well-designed, high-performance sea fishing rod that, thanks to its free spool focus, is easy to use even if you are not particularly familiar with sea angling, and want to avoid the complexities of using multiplier reels.

With superior join strength right along the rod length, and a focus on creating a rod that’s comfortable to use all day, meaning you can fish both sides of the tide without feeling your hands are being rubbed raw, this is a dynamic rod that will make you remember why sea fishing is considered such good fun.

What’s The Best Thing About It?

Sea fishing sessions typically last several hours, as anglers look to maximise the potential of fishing both sides of the tide. For many people, also, there’s the fact that they’ve had quite a drive to get to the beach, and don’t want to have made that effort for an hour’s session.

Therefore, the prime motivation for buying this rod should be its ergonomic rear grip, which will give you all-day comfort.
