The Daiwa Trolling Advantage

From the versatile Great Lakes series to specialized Prorex spinning styles, these rods transition you from hobbyist to high-performance specialist. When we talk about Daiwa, we are talking about the "workhorse" of the tournament world. Our staff of active tournament anglers at Angling Sports relies on Daiwa because they don't just build rods; they engineer solutions for specific Ontario water conditions.

For those moving into casting setups, Daiwa’s T-Wing System (TWS) is a game-changer, reducing friction and backlash to ensure your lures get into the strike zone with surgical precision. For our spinning enthusiasts, the use of Zaion V materials provides a composite that is lighter and stronger than traditional designs, giving you the sensitivity to feel a light Walleye peck and the backbone to bury the hook.

Whether you need a graphite/fiberglass composite for forgiveness on a downrigger or a heavy-duty graphite model for Musky and Salmon, Daiwa delivers professional-level performance that remains accessible to every angler.

It depends on your target. Trolling is the king of efficiency for covering massive areas of Lake St. Clair or Lake Erie for Walleye and Salmon. Spinning applications are often preferred for lighter presentations or when extra sensitivity and "precision casting" are required for pressured fish
