Daiwa SKYHIGH
Daiwa SKYHIGH is a versatile saltwater shore lure rod series designed for easy, comfortable casting across a wide range of fishing styles and target species. Its blank is engineered to load smoothly during the cast, making it easier to achieve distance without excessive effort.
The series introduces a Carbon Monocoque Rear Grip to Daiwa seabass rods, increasing rigidity, reducing power loss during casting and improving sensitivity and handling. HVF Carbon provides a lightweight, strong and well-balanced blank, while X45 suppresses twisting to enhance power, control and sensitivity.
An Air Sensor Seat contributes further weight reduction, strength and sensitivity. Stainless-frame K guides with Alconite rings are used from tip to butt to reduce line trouble.
The lineup covers seabass as its primary target while also supporting chinning, wind fishing, flatfish, light shore jigging, sea-run cherry salmon, rock-shore seabass, hairtail and pelagic fish depending on the model. The 86ML is a maneuverable short model for canals and urban rivers, suited to accurate casting, twitching and jerking as well as topwater chinning.
The 86M adds power for heavier topwater plugs and minnows in compact areas and wading situations. The 90L is a finesse model for small to medium minnows, sinking pencils and worms, including micro-bait and worm-hatch patterns, large rockfish and chinning.
