Daiwa Blackwing Popping Rods
Built for anglers seeking exceptional distance, accuracy, and power to target surface-feeding gamefish, the Daiwa Blackwing Popping Rods are well equipped to come out on top against the toughest predators. The exciting and demanding fishing technique requires rods that offer strength, distance, and durability, and Blackwing excels in all these areas.
Constructed around Daiwa's HVF Nanoplus graphite blank, these rods are lightweight enough for all-day topwater fishing, yet strong enough to handle powerful fish. The HVF Nanoplus graphite is wrapped with Daiwa's X45 bias construction, aligning the rod's spine for improved accuracy and reinforcing it for maximum hook-setting power. Fuji Tangle-Free SiC guides ensure smooth casting and prevent line from wrapping, even in windy conditions, allowing for quick, precise casts into the strike zone.
The series features five different rods, with lengths ranging from 7'9" to 8'2" and powers from medium to extra heavy, all backed by a 5-year limited warranty.
FUJI SIC RING GUIDES
For over two decades, SiC (Silicone Carbide) has set the benchmark for guide ring material. Incredibly hard, lightweight, and highly polished for exceptional smoothness, SiC guides excel at dissipating heat, making them perfect for light drag settings and battling large fish.
SVF NANOPLUS
Through the use of nano resin technology, SVF Nanoplus blanks combine precise resin control and unidirectional graphite fiber to produce a blank that has maximum graphite density. This ultimately creates a blank that is extremely lightweight, robust, powerful, and sensitive, all the qualities you want in any fishing rod.
X45 BIAS
Designed to prevent blank twist and enhance power, X45 utilizes a Bias Wrap Construction with a 45-degree left/right carbon weave within the blank. This advanced design significantly boosts rod strength and durability by maintaining the blank
