Tackle Tuesday... Daiwa Whisker DF Carp Rods

This entry was posted on 25th March, 2014

The Infinity and Longbow DF rod ranges are widely recognised as having a fine pedigree as far as Carp rods go. The development and design has become much loved throughout the Carp scene and can be found in the UK-made Whisker models, which have once again been thoroughly tested and tried by Danny Fairbrass and members of the Korda Team.

Available in 12 and 13ft models, to suit all your needs an array of test curves are present, ensuring that every casting ability is catered for.

The 12ft version begins at 2.75lb and goes right through to a powerful 3.5lb, whereas the 13ft has options of 3lb and 3.5lb. To complement these, a spod rod is available in a very powerful 4.25lb test curve.

Finished and furnished to the same high standards that you would expect from the more expensive ranges, the Whisker DFs are a thing of beauty that will not go unnoticed and certainly look the part on the bank. All rods feature 50mm butt guides, a DPS reel seat and TS lined guides.

Keeping in fashion you can expect an understated silk matt blank that seamlessly joins to a slim shrink-wrap handle and flared matt black butt cap.



The Whisker DF has been entirely manufactured in the UK and for a rod that offers such a high level of performance, aesthetics and great value for money, there’s very little on the market that compares.
