Daiwa 23 Presso LTD AGS 20th Anniversary

The famous rods of all time sought after by professional staff are now equipped with the latest technology.

Daiwa's area trout brand "PRESSO".
It was born in 2003 at the dawn of area trout, and has led the area trout scene.
Over the past 20 years, many rods have been created, including rods known as signature rods.
In 2023, three of the famous rods selected by PRESSO professional staff will be equipped with the latest technology.

PRESSO 20th Anniversary, which has undergone significant evolution, is particularly noteworthy for "SVF compile-X NANOPLUS."
It makes the rod lighter and has improved sensitivity, and responds sharply and exactly as the angler wants when casting, hooking, or manipulating lures.
The grip uses a separate grip, but has a length and shape that provides a strong grip.
The exterior uses aluminum parts that are lightweight but have a new appearance.
The case is a cylindrical semi-hard case that prevents damage during storage or in the car.

Daiwa Technology

Sensitive area design system [ESS] (Expert sense simulation)

When a rod bends, energy (restoring force) is generated in the opposite direction. This is the "strain energy" that causes a deformed (strained) blank to return to its original state, and can be said to be an extremely important element that affects the performance of the rod. DAIWA has independently developed a system to analyze and design ``strain energy'', and not only clearly understands ``what is good'' and ``what is lacking'' numerically, but also designs the area of ​​sensitivity that anglers have. This makes it possible to reflect the changes in the fishing rod, and brings the rod closer to what anglers are looking for.

SVF COMPILE-X Nano Plus

Super muscular blanks made of significantly reduced resin and a correspondingly large amount of graphite fibers. Its high hardness and tension lead to a high ability to transmit information, giving it a sensitivity as if you were holding water in your hands. In addition, the reduced amount of resin means an increase in lightness and power, making it possible to make a much lighter rod with the same power, and a much thinner rod with the same power and lightness. This blank is indispensable for fishing that requires an instant reaction to a bite, and you can feel the keen sensitivity and powerful bat power. Because of its slender body, it is easy to swing through, allowing for accurate casting without missing the target spot, and its light weight allows you to continue shooting all day long. These high-performance blanks have been further improved by nanoplus technology.

A.G.S.

The AGS (Air Guide System), which achieves light weight and high sensitivity, uses a carbon frame, and due to the characteristics of carbon, which is approximately three times stiffer than titanium, it does not absorb the slightest signal transmitted through the line. It has high sensitivity that transmits information directly to the blank. In addition, the lightweight nature of carbon contributes to reducing the weight of the entire rod, and by reducing the weight of the tip in particular, we can expect an additional effect in improving sensitivity.

CWS (Carbon Wrapping System)

DAIWA's unique technology that uses carbon cloth to secure the guide and reel seat to the blank. By fixing the parts with strongly woven carbon cloth instead of threads, the weight of the part attachment area can be reduced, and it also has high holding power (torsional rigidity of the guide attachment area) and durability (cracking resistance).

X45X

X45 Full Shield has a structure in which twisting that occurs during movements such as casting, action, hooking, fighting, etc. is tightened from the most effective outermost layer with a carbon bias cloth at 45 degrees from the tip of the blank where twisting is most likely to occur. As a result, torsional rigidity has been dramatically improved. As a result, it has become possible to bring out the original performance of the rod with greater cast accuracy than ever before.

V-JOINT

By using a bias-structured carbon sheet at the joint of the rod, it achieves beautiful bending with less distortion, just like a one-piece rod. Compared to the one without it, the power, tension, and speed of return from bending are significantly improved, creating the ideal condition.

AIR SENSOR SEAT

Air sensor sheet containing carbon fiber realizes lightweight, high strength, and high sensitivity. It is specially designed according to the rod's purpose, providing operability that cannot be experienced with a general-purpose reel seat.

MEGA TOP

MegaTop is a carbon solid with evenly distributed fibers and resin, which bends the same way in all directions. As a result, the strength has been dramatically improved compared to normal carbon solid. This makes it possible to create a tip with a small diameter, flexibility, and high taper, resulting in a tip that is not only sensitive to the touch, but also has excellent visual sensitivity on the tip.

*58ML-S only

X45

In order to prevent twisting that occurs during movements such as casting, action, hooking, and fighting, we have developed a 45° structure in addition to the conventional structure (0° and 90° relative to the rod tip) to prevent twisting based on many years of research. We have come to the conclusion that it is best to wrap it with a bias cloth (carbon fiber, etc. angled at ±45°). The installation of X45 prevents twisting and dramatically improves power, operability, and sensitivity.

Product Detail

A new grip that is both lightweight and comfortable to use.

Adopts a new grip shape that combines lightness and holding performance. All types of fishing can be done comfortably, from fishing with coils to fishing with control plugs.

AGS&CWS

Combining lightweight and highly sensitive AGS with CWS, we have achieved unprecedented sensitivity, swing feel, and no weight.

20th anniversary logo end cap

The end cap featuring the 20th anniversary logo has a new shape. It combines lightness and design. ※※If the butt part hits the ground strongly, the aluminum parts may be damaged, so we recommend using a rod stand.

Line Up

Model	Explanation
58ML-S	Keiji Miura continues to evolve with the trout while facing the trout of the time, "58ML-S". "PRESSO LTD AGS 58ML-S 20th Anniversary" is a 20th anniversary model of Keiji Miura's standard count, equipped with the latest technology. The ``2-stage taper solid'' is designed to convey not only the attack from the fish, but also the movement of the lure and changes in water flow. The vibrations of the delicate solid part at the tip are amplified by the original thick solid part, transmitting all the information that occurs underwater.
61MLF	The rod "PRESSO AGS 61MLF" is used by Hiroki Wada to win in tournaments. "PRESSO LTD AGS 61MLF 20th Anniversary" is the 20th anniversary model of Hiroki Wada's favorite rod, equipped with the latest technology. This rod is designed to be used in combination with a low-stretch line, uses a crank and a spoon, catches the hit with the fast taper's delicate tip, and hooks with a tensioned butt, perfecting an aggressive style.
63UL	Tatsuya Takada was impressed by its unparalleled sensitivity and distance, and his favorite rod was the 2011 model "PRESSO LTD AGS 63UL." "PRESSO LTD AGS 63UL 20th Anniversary" is the 20th anniversary model of Tatsuya Takada's favorite rod, equipped with the latest technology. Although it is lightweight, the blank has no weight and improves operability and swing feel. Long-distance performance has also been improved. It has a high sensitivity that conveys small hits off the coast, and a hard tip section that leaves the hook in the trout's mouth and brings it to the hook. The result is a rod that is perfect for wind fishing.
