DAIWA’s DRAGGER SX is a shore jigging rod that combines effortless lure control for jigs and plugs with the tenacious flex needed to follow the runs of bluewater species. Like the high-end BREAKTHROUGH model, it prioritizes controllability that allows the current to envelop the lure and brings out a natural action, while the blank is tuned to bend progressively in response to a fish’s pull. It reduces strain on the angler while making it harder for the fish to take line, delivering the fighting performance needed to control its movement.
The slim, easy-to-grip blank is designed to be lightweight and well balanced, with a light tip that responds to precise lure manipulation. It is also easy to cast even with heavier-load lures and is forgiving and easy to handle, helping prevent erratic lure actions. When working jigs, its progressive bend through the midsection makes it easy to continue imparting action with minimal effort, while also providing lifting power for hits near the bottom. Each model is designed for specific lures and fishing environments. The 106M is a long model focused on the casting distance of lightweight lures and retrieve sensitivity. It is easy to work minnows and blades frequently used in harbor areas, and is suited to searching all the way to the area at your feet while controlling the lure’s depth.
