Daiwa Longbeam X Surf Rod

Daiwa Longbeam X Surf Rod

It used to be that if you were going sea fishing from the beach you would fish with a standard length sea fishing rod paired with a multiplier reel. For many years this was the only accepted form of surf casting, with many anglers believing that you couldn’t get results with any other method. However, times have changed and, although many anglers still use these traditional methods, it is considerably more common to see anglers on the beach fishing with a longer surf casting rod and a fixed spool reel. This Longbeam X Surf by Daiwa has been specifically designed for this new form of sea fishing and, as with many of the products that Daiwa designs, it really has taken the market by storm.

Multiplier fishing can be incredibly tricky to master, especially if you’re an angler who fishes with a fixed spool reel for the majority of your time at the water. This Daiwa Longbeam X Surf brings distance fishing into touch without the need for you to waste excessive precious angling time learning how to combat a multiplier reel. As you might expect, to allow you to be able to cast these increased distances with fixed spool reels, and as the name suggests, the Longbeam X is a very long fishing rod. Available at 14ft and 16ft in length, the Longbeam X Surf enables you to hit out beyond the surf with you standard fixed spool reel. Well balanced, this rod is constructed from a high grade of carbon, has a three piece construction, and has push-in jointed to maintain the slim profile and powerful action the blank has to offer.

It isn’t only the rod’s length that has been modified to work with a fixed spool reel. The Longbeam X Surf also has adjusted ring spacing, to ensure that the guide distances are suitable for fixed spool fishing. The DPS reel seat sits your reel in a fixed position, too, unlike the coasters supplied with many multiplier rods. The black and red cosmetics finish this rod with a touch of class and ensure that this rod complements any standard fixed spool appearance.
