Im thinking about buying a Daiwa Black Widow 10' 3,5lb rod with a Daiwa 19 Black Widow BR LT 4000-C Reel. Anyone experience with it and recommendations?
I noticed you're using what looks like a Diawa GS reel. I'm thinking about the Daiwa 20 GS BR LT 5000-C or the Daiwa 20 Crosscast 35 SCW reel. Wondering if you think it’ll pair well with the 12ft 3.0lb Crosscast rod? Thanks
I bought a black widow feeder rod and when I landed my first fish I unluckily stepped on the rod and it broke immediately. So this was very disappointing although the handling of the rod is quite pleasing
I've recently decided to upgrade my kit. I'm looking for a 10ft 3lb Ext rod. The venues I usually fish are small (up to. 80yds max) and the avg. Carp between 15 - 20lbs. At the moment I’m undecided between Diawa’s Black Widow, Crosscast and Infinity rods. If play/fighting action is a top priority for me, can you please suggest or explain the major differences between these rods? Thanks so much for your help Joe
Hi there, the INFINITY rods currently do not offer a EXT version just the standard 2 piece 10ft rod set up. The Crosscast EXT and Black WIdow EXT are both great options if you are looking for a semi telescopic butt section rod. Take a look on the Daiwa Carp website to find out all the information for each rod range : www.daiwacarp.com/rods
Very helpful video! Can you recommend a Diawa reel to go with a pair of 10 ft 3lb t/c Kaizen Green rods? A reel with a super smooth drag is my #1 goal. I fish for carp up to 20lbs on small venues and my budget can go up to $200 a reel (but I’d like to stay under $150 but will go higher). Thanks much Joe
Hello, Yesterday, I tested the EXT version and was very impressed. It offers more power reserve than the XT and is faster-exactly what I was looking for. I was about to purchase a set but noticed a design flaw. Due to its telescopic butt section, in time, particles inevitably get trapped between the two sections. Therefore, a removable butt cap is essential for easy cleaning and to remove any abrasive particles. I hope Daiwa engineers will think about it. I have telescopic spinning rods, some +15 years old, for hiking+fishing. I always open the butt cap and wash all the section, let them dry a few days, put the cap back.
I don't understand this english love of spodding. Why don't you use feeding boat. Expensive but cleaner, faster, quiet plus dropping the rig at same time. One good boat could be used for many years
Being an English angler that can't afford to fish abroad I don't know about the rules and regulations abroad but here in the UK not every lake here allows bait boats and even fewer allows you to put your mix and rig out with a boat with a out bord motor so the only option is to spom
Thanks for reminding me about dunking the spom or spider in the water we use to do that with the spod to help keep the mix in it but it is a very good tip Thanks
@@DaiwaCarp awesome, thanks for the info. Definitely going to try getting my hands on a reel like this. It'll go perfectly with my 12ft rod targeting those big cats
I have 1 of these rods and can honestly say im extremly happy with it im planning to order a second one and a daiwa black widow 5500A reel honestly for the price of the rod its 100% worth it.
Hello, can you answer a question for me? The blank of Daiwa Infinity 12ft x45 3.75 lbs is the same diameter as Basia x45x 12ft 3.75 lbs. The blank is thin because there is no reference on this topic. thank you
