METALLIA ISEWAN GAME Rod Series
The METALLIA ISEWAN GAME series by Daiwa is a premium high sensitivity regional special boat rod developed specifically for the versatile offshore fishing styles of Japan’s famous Ise Bay region.
Designed as a highly adaptable all season offshore rod, the series supports a wide range of targets and fishing techniques including utase madai, hirame, tachiuo, bluefish, isaki, horse mackerel, and various bait fishing methods commonly practiced throughout Ise Bay.
The rod features Daiwa’s advanced Metal Top technology utilizing a superelastic titanium alloy tip section capable of transmitting delicate bites, subtle pressure signals, and underwater structure changes directly to the angler with remarkable sensitivity.
The tip section is additionally equipped with lightweight AGS carbon guides that dramatically improve vibration transmission while reducing tip weight, resulting in sharper sensitivity, lighter handling feel, and reduced fatigue during long fishing sessions.
Its versatile 7:3 action design delivers excellent balance between operability and fighting power, allowing the rod to adapt naturally to both lightweight sinkers requiring sharp sensitivity and heavier rigs demanding smooth full-body bending performance.
The HVF NANOPLUS high density carbon blank construction increases strength and resilience while reducing excess resin weight, achieving an outstanding balance between lightweight performance and offshore fighting power.
Daiwa’s X45 carbon reinforcement structure effectively suppresses blank twisting during casting, rod action, hook setting, and fish fighting, greatly improving power transmission, control precision, and rod stability.
The V-JOINT joint construction creates a smooth one-piece-like bending curve with fast recovery speed and stable lifting power, helping anglers confidently handle large offshore species and strong current conditions.
The AIR SENSOR SEAT Slim Trigger reel seat is specially optimized for compact electric reels and conventional baitcasting reels widely used in Ise Bay fishing, delivering lightweight comfort, excellent grip stability, and improved operability.
With an ideal 225cm length and lightweight 140g construction, the rod offers excellent maneuverability and versatility for multiple offshore fishing situations throughout the year.
Combining elite sensitivity, lightweight technical handling, and versatile offshore performance, the METALLIA ISEWAN GAME series represents Daiwa’s advanced modern approach to all-round Japanese bay boat fishing.
