Daiwa 26 Emeraldas X IM
The Daiwa 26 Emeraldas X IM is a rod series for Ikametal fishing. It was created for vertical work with cephalopods, especially for night fishing. The family includes Baitcasting and Spinning models, so anglers can choose the setup best suited to their technique and lure control.
What it is for
This series is designed to read lure behaviour precisely and detect the lightest bites. The high-sensitivity Solid Tip tip makes small movements of the tip visible, a real advantage when fishing with very little reaction margin. The fluorescent orange tip helps visual reading in the dark. The blank combines sensitivity and power reserve, so the rod works well both with delicate sutte control and when a fast, decisive hook-set is needed. Baitcasting models are aimed at traditional vertical fishing, while Spinning models offer a more dynamic lure presentation.
