A Standard Interline Rock Fishing Rod Model Equipped with Advanced Technology
This rod features cutting-edge interline technology and an ultra water-repellent dry coating that prevents moisture buildup inside the blank, ensuring exceptionally smooth line release. Thanks to its design, which reduces line sticking and tangling caused by rain or splashing waves, anglers can enjoy stress-free fishing even in rough weather or at night. Once a fish is hooked, the rod bends smoothly to absorb the fight, helping to land fish calmly without aggressive thrashing.
It also includes a screw-lock reel seat that firmly secures your reel for stable fighting performance. The #1 and #2 sections are finished with the same high-performance water-repellent dry coating. Re-engineered from the traditional interline design, this rod achieves a supple, responsive parabolic bend that extends through the midsection, offering both flexibility and strength.
A Versatile Lineup Catering to a wide range of fishing styles, the series includes float fishing models (1.25 to 1.75), high-power HR models (2-53HR, 3-53HR), long-casting models (3-52 Long Cast, 4-52 Long Cast), and specialized models for Aoriika-style fishing (1.5-53, 1.75-53).
Daiwa Technologies
Linear Interline Structure This structure incorporates spiral-shaped protrusions along the inner blank wall, utilizing a "Fujiyama shape" that minimizes contact points between line and water, reducing resistance and maximizing line release performance.
X45 Technology To suppress twisting during casting, fighting, or hook-setting, Daiwa integrates ±45° carbon fiber bias construction in addition to the conventional 0°/90° layout. This innovation dramatically improves power, control, and sensitivity.
HVF Carbon Daiwa’s High Volume Fiber carbon significantly reduces excess resin—commonly viewed as dead weight—while increasing the density of high-modulus carbon fibers. The result is a lightweight, strong, and highly responsive blank ideal for rods requiring strength and resilience.
This rod combines a high-performance ultra water-repellent dry coating—with a contact angle of 165° that minimizes water adhesion inside the blank—with a Linear Interline structure. This ensures water droplets are expelled together with the line, enabling exceptionally smooth long casts. Unlike external guides, the interline structure provides broader contact between the blank and line, maximizing the rod's rebound potential. In combination with X45 construction, this design reduces power loss and draws out the full potential of the blank.

■ Removable SiC Top Guide
Features a detachable, screw-in SiC top guide for easy maintenance.
■ Entrance Guide
Specially shaped entrance guide allows threading wires through with ease and reduces the chance of line tangles.
■ Rear Grip
The rear grip features a shrink tube finish that enhances grip and stability during retrieves, especially under wet conditions.
■ Comes with Line Threading Wire
Comparison of Rod Bending Characteristics
Due to the internal spiral structure, interline rods tend to have a stiffer feel. However, this model has been finely tuned for flexibility at the #3 section—typically where stiffness is most noticeable—compared to models like the 15 Mark Dry and 19 IL Impreza. As a result, the pivot point transfers smoothly toward the angler's hand, achieving a more forgiving, parabolic bend that reduces fatigue during prolonged use.
Item Introductions
1.25-53, 1.5-45, 1.5-53, 1.75-53 [Fukase Model] This model features exceptional durability not found in traditional interline rods. It allows you to gently lift fish without causing them to struggle, just by applying pressure. With a versatile 4.5m version that’s easy to handle and ideal for pier fishing, it’s perfect for sub-rodding during strong winds or rain. It also excels for night fishing and other situations requiring stability and performance in tough conditions.
2-53HR, 3-53HR [HR Model] The HR (Heavy Rod) models are designed to handle large fish, such as bluefish or offshore catches. Thanks to the interline structure, the blank absorbs the entire line’s load, providing power and control that standard guide rods can’t match.
3-52 Long Cast, 4-52 Long Cast [Long Cast Model] These rods are built for smooth long-distance casting with a perfect combination of rod flex and the weight of the basket. They are ideal for night fishing, bottom fishing, and other long-distance techniques. Featuring a large-diameter Sic top guide, these rods prevent slippage of larger float stops.
Aori 1.5-53, Aori 1.75-53 [Yaen Model] Designed specifically for Yaen fishing, these rods come with a highly visible white tip for improved visibility. With a thinner tip than the Fukase model, they offer superior flexibility, ensuring that fish like mackerel are less likely to struggle, and making the rod feel less intrusive to squid (Aori ika).
