Lateo Pirates Ultimate casting innovation..the easiest way to describe Daiwa,s latest shore lure casting rods, Lateo Pirates. Designed for rocky shore and beach based lure fishing, Lateo,s unique design provides unparalleled casting performance. Lateo employs Daiwa,s unique Japanese designed HVF (high volume fibre) carbon blank, these rods are designed to load from the tip to the butt for maximum power and fast casting acceleration. A minimalist approach in design was used deliberately to eliminate any extra weight, grips and blank cosmetics are almost nonexistent. But the blank isnt everything that improves casting performance. Lateo uses Fuji,s epoch making guide system, alconite K guides, these guides dramatically reduce line wrap and improve line speed for faster more accurate casting. Added to this these rods feature customized Fuji graphite reel seats, custom alloy componentry and minimalist ultra tough EVA grips to reduce weight for high speed casting acceleration. For ultimate casting performance and innovation look no further than Lateo Pirates.
