An absolute superb rod. Fortunate enough to "borrow" one. Casts like a dream. Matched up to a Penn 515 mag3 omg. I've used century, penn abu zziplex etc etc. Now it doesn't quite hit the zziplex mark BUT at a third of the price its remarkable. It sat absolutely lovely in the stand bites came and registered perfectly. Whiting dab all indicated well £210. Available for all in March. Gerrys will have them but SEVERAL others too. 13'6" and 14'2". Value for money 9/10 I unders

Cool video, your right about diawa tips. I've got a 3 piece tournament fixed spool rod, the multi version is 2 piece. I sometimes think the tip is going to break but it manages to cast a 6oz lead plus bait easily. I think diawas are sometimes overlooked considering how good they are.

Wholeheartedly agree. However diawa have got a little left behind imho Up Till NOW. They have favoured the boat world with Quality rods and flooded the beach section with low to mid price rods (sorry folks). Yes £209 is not a huge amount of money but believe me having now played with one this is NOT £209 worth? Price wise £300-£350 all day long. That's basing all factors.

Great to see your new rod has a parallel butt which means it locks the reel firmly in an position unlike my Anyfish Anywhere 6 & Bait which the further up the blank you set the reel the more it rocks and moves, never been happy with the rod at 200+ quid I far prefer the cheaper Sonik Vader my go to rod.

I have a 12ft FS, 12ft Multi, and 2 13ft Multis. I use the multis on a fs sometimes and I don’t notice a difference.

How about going or contacting your closet tackle shop. They might suggest a smaller bass/flatty type rod for instance but it depends where you will be fishing . On the rod building side rather than go the whole hog you could always get decals or coloured stickers with their names on it and put that neatly on the rod blank - a personalised present 🎁

Have a look at Penn Rampage uptiders. 10ft rod, cast 4-10oz but casts a 150g (5oz ish) plis bait a good distance. Has a nice through action with sensitive tip too, ive had a 40lb tope on it so one will handle any fish youd catch from the shore. I often fish with one alongside my beachcasters fishing 50yds out for bass. Would be great for a youngster to start off with and not horendously expensive

Your set up will catch you fish. No problems but for me it’s; 1. The feel of the power progression of the rod- I don’t want to loose contact as the rod develops it’s power during the cast. Something with backbone to lift a heavier fish (not that that happens much !) 2.a tip that registers bites but has a progressive stiffness 3.good enough fittings

Im a bit of a Kenzaki fan of the boat rods so had to pre order two of the 14ft beachcasters 😁😁. Also picked up a couple of penn 515's to go with them. The plan was to pick up a couple of T1000's for rough ground but im going to wait out until ive had a bash with these kenzakis. Just watching the casting of it you can tell it has back bone and very little wobble. Do you rekon it would cope with rough ground?

Good to know , The kenzaki will be using 30lb braid and 80lb braid leader SA style. fishing for snapper and Jacks. mainly looking at the 10kg range , tho never know what may hook up. For heavier stuff will use 12ft Shimano Tiralejo 50 to 80lb rated line, conventional surf caster with Saltiga 50H running 600m of 50lb braid. Will also use Assasin Horizon championship edition #6 (15' SA surf casting rod, fantastic bit of kit, check it out ) with Saltiga 20000H fixed spool .

Hi Matt, an interesting comment about the rod being used for either Multi, or Fixed spool. I bought a Penn Prevail II and intend to use it with a multi or FS, but surely purist's would say the rod has a spine and should only be used with one or the other? Personally, I would think these days and with modern manufacturing techniques, it would be possible to spin a carbon blank with no 'spine' surely? another great vds, thanks, Neale

Good points , I think it would be slightly better balanced with a multiplier but the blank is still holding a weight and either way I can’t feel much difference

Most rods don't have a spine anymore...it would be hard to find one with to be honest...it's more ring height diameter and spacing that has an effect...less so for the multi but certainly for getting the coils off a fixed spool through them

@@smokin1974 Thanks for the reply, makes me feel a whole lot more comfortable using the Prevail with the multi now. I've checked the curve and ring spacing, under a load, and all looks good, so I simply have to try it fishing now, cheers.

14’2” in 2 equal sections is downright silly! Daiwa make Kenzaki boat rods in 3 or 4 sections so why not a 3-piece surf rod? Continental style 3-piece rods are all over the market now. I really like Daiwa stuff a lot and the rod looks great but I won’t be buying one in that configuration.

It requires a bit of power to get the best out of it but although it’s useable . I really think a lighter continental style rod would be an excellent choice for a 13 year old. Something a bit softer
