- Daiwa Spartan Ii B60-2/3 Pe2/3 6'0" Overhead Slow Jig Rod
The initial creation of the Spartan range heralded the first complete premium range of heavy duty saltwater rods specifically designed with the kiwi angler in mind. The range covered all bases, from topwater through to mechanical jig and slow pitch. Now for 2025 the Spartan range has been reimagined and redesigned.
The Spartan II aesthetics have been refined and more of Daiwa’s latest rod tech poured in to create a series of rods that excel in their chosen fields. In the updated range you’ll find topwater, mechanical jig – overhead & spin, slow pitch and softbait rods, all perfectly crafted to be technically sound.
The notable addition tech wise is X45X Full Shield giving the blank increased stability across its entire length. This enhances the rods functionality when battling hard fighting saltwater species as the angler can focus on battling the fish and not the rod. Combine this with its predecessors tech, V-Joint, HVF Nanoplus, Fuji SiC’s, you’ll find a series that oozes Saltiga tech and performance at a more affordable price.
Features:
- 3dx
3DX supports the lower power section of the rod by knitting densely packed carbon fibers in 3 directions to achieve a six wrap rectangular weave. Power through the blank under load is distributed evenly in all directions allowing it to maintain its profile and form. This process confines the rod’s power to the lower section of the rod, increases power, eliminates blank twist and collapse, all the while reducing angler fatigue. - Fuji Reel Seat
Light, strong and true to the famous brand’s reputation for quality and class, Fuji reel seats deliver on performance and value. - Fuji Sic Ring
SiC has been the gold standard of guide ring material for over 20 years. Super hard, light, and highly polished and smooth, SiC guides are an excellent dissipater of heat making them ideal for light drags and/or big fish - Fuji Stainlees Steel Guides
Light, strong, and highly corrosion resistant, Fuji stainless steel guides are tailor-made for harsh conditions. - Hvf Nanoplus
Through the use of nano resin control technology in the blank construction process, Nanoplus allows for increased graphite density to be achieved within a graphite rod blank. - V Joint
Bias construction within the ferrule allows it to flex with the rod, eliminating the weak, unbending spot caused by ordinary ferrules. The result of this revolutionary technology is a multi-piece blank that matches the performance of one-piece blanks in flex, power and responsiveness. - X45X Full Shield
X45X Full Shield Technology is 25% more efficient than standard X45 technology. With increased torsional stiffness, blanks armed with X45X resist blank twist during casting & jigging. This characteristic prevents the blank from losing stored energy during the cast, ensuring that every bit of force you put into your cast, is transferred through the blank and ultimately to your chosen lure.
