Daiwa 22 TD Battler AGS Baitcast Rod

Daiwa 22 TD Battler AGS Baitcast Rod

The Daiwa 22 TD Battler AGS Baitcast Rod represents the pinnacle of Daiwa Australia’s rod design expertise. Completely redeveloped from the ground up, this flagship series combines cutting-edge materials with decades of local knowledge to deliver uncompromising performance for serious anglers.

At the core of the TD Battler AGS is a blank constructed from SVF Compile-X Nanoplus graphite. This ultra-high modulus carbon, enhanced with nano-resin technology, provides an exceptional power-to-weight ratio, resulting in a rod that is incredibly lightweight, ultra-crisp, and highly responsive.

Daiwa’s latest AGS (Air Guide System) carbon fibre guides further reduce overall weight while maximising sensitivity. The improved guide frame design minimises line tangles, while slimmer ceramic inserts reduce friction for smoother line flow and longer, more accurate casts.

Blank performance is enhanced through the combined use of Daiwa’s 3DX and X45X Full Shield graphite technologies. Working together, they increase torsional rigidity to reduce blank twist under load, eliminate power loss, and deliver precise lure control with faster recovery.

Completing the rod is Daiwa’s new AIRSENSOR hybrid reel seat with a distinctive clear finish inspired by classic Daiwa designs. On baitcast models, the offset blank design lowers hand position for improved ergonomics and more comfortable reel palming during extended fishing sessions.

With an expanded model lineup capable of handling everything from finesse applications to heavy swimbait fishing for Murray cod and barramundi, the 22 TD Battler AGS stands in a league of its own.
