Quoted after order. Decline the quote and we refund in full.Emeraldas X is where the range starts, and it is the rod we point first-season squid anglers at. Daiwa put the money where a beginner actually feels it: a 99% carbon blank with Braiding X reinforcement through the tube, so it doesn't crush and flatten under a hard jerk the way cheap blanks do, and enough backbone at 8'6 to throw #3.5 into a headwind. It is not a light rod at 103 g and it doesn't pretend to be a Stoist — but it casts properly, it jerks cleanly, and it is a genuine rod rather than a starter toy. If squid fishing sticks, this becomes the one you leave in the car.
