Daiwa 20 Emeraldas Air AGS

The lightest egging rod in Daiwa’s history, with a refined lightness.

The “AIR” series stands out for its light weight in the Daiwa eging model series. The 75MLM, the lightest model in the series, which has been further refined from the originally lightweight AIR series, has achieved an astonishing lightness of 76g in weight.
Of course, not only is it light, but it is also designed to be safe and strong. The main material of the blank is HVF Nano Plus, which boasts light weight and high strength, and is reinforced with X45 to prevent twisting. It is designed with a blank that has a crisp cast feel and a moderate amount of play to prevent the Egi from going wild during jerk.
In terms of sensitivity, it is equipped with “AGS” that is lightweight, highly rigid, and trouble-free. The high rigidity of “AGS” greatly contributes to increased sensitivity. In addition, the grip adopts an air sensor grip that enhances hand sensitivity, further reducing weight and improving operability. .

EMERALDAS AIR AGS 74MMH Supervised by Naoki

Kimori Large short model for spring A strong, high-resilience short model that can rhythmically perform the “sound jerk” that Naoki Kimori is good at. The basic concept is the same as the previous 74MH, but the 74MMH this time has a hard MH bat and only the tip is set to M to incorporate a little flexibility. It is a powerful and strong rod that can handle everything from a powerful jerking when waiting for a migration in a deep area at night to a large target in a hard seaweed area, but it is a very special short that combines the “lightness” unique to the AIR series. rod.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 75MLM
Naoki Kimori supervised Autumn Langan short model
The 75MLM is a short rod similar to the 74MMH supervised by Naoki Kimori, but the 74MMH naturally has too much power in the fall season. So, without changing the feeling of use, this model has been slightly light-tuned with ML tip power and M bat power. Also, this is recommended for anglers who like a shorter and supple tone than the same tubular tip 78M. A short model that shines with good replay, which is indispensable for aggressive fishing that hits shallow areas with 2.5 to 3.5 egi.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 78M
Supervised by Yoshihiro Fukushima All-around short model
A short and all-season model supervised by Yoshihiro Fukushima whose home ground is the Sea of ​​Japan. Speaking of the Sea of ​​​​Japan, the points are rich in variety and you can enjoy egging in various situations, but on the other hand, there are often situations where you have to catch after the predecessor because there are many people. Under such circumstances, a short all-round model with a tubular top that can handle as many situations as possible with just one rod is very useful in order to identify the points and fish efficiently with Langan. A versatile taper that supports a wide range of egi sizes from 2.5 to 4, and is perfect for winding jerks.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 711M-S
Supervised by Takayuki Oka High Sensitivity Solid Tip Short Model
711M-S is a short solid tip model with a mega top. The presence or absence of the tide is an important factor in egging, and if the tide is not effective, it is difficult to get good results no matter how good the point is. The biggest feature of this rod is that it is equipped with a flexible and highly sensitive mega top that clearly conveys the strength and changes of the tide. Knowing this will make it easier to set a guideline for point selection, and there is no doubt that the distance to the squid will be shortened at once. As for the butt part, it has M power, so it has a delicate tip, but it can be used with Egi up to size 4, so it can be used in various situations.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 83ML
Tubular Tip Autumn Langan standard model
83ML is a tubular top model that thoroughly pursues ease of casting and operability. The length is also set at 8.3ft, which has a good balance between operability and flight distance. Egi centered on sizes 2.5 to 3 are the easiest to use in the fall season, but by taking advantage of the suppleness of the ML, even in the spring season it is possible to explore carefully with 3.5 egi with a soft jerk.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 83M
Tubular tip all-season model
83M is 3 inches shorter than the standard 86M, and has a length that emphasizes operability and lightness. An all-season model that can handle a variety of situations with a single rod, as it supports a wide range of egi sizes from 2.5 to 4, centering on the frequently used 3.5. Although it is a model in the middle, it is recommended for anglers who prefer a slightly short rod.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 84ML-S
Solid Tip Fall Sensitive Model

The basic base is almost the same as the 83ML, but the 84ML-S uses a mega top to accentuate the delicacy of the tip. A big advantage of the solid tip is that it conveys changes in the tide as a slight weight to your hands. A medium light action that is ideal for the autumn season centered on 2.5 to 3.5 and for squid eging such as spear squid.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 86ML
Tubular tip fall standard model
86ML is a more supple and light-tuned version of the classic 86M. 8.6ft is a length that balances both castability and operability, and supports a wide range of egi sizes from 2.5 to 3.5, centering on 3, which is frequently used in autumn. Also, anglers who like flexible rods have a strength setting that can be used even in spring egging, even though it is ML.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 86M The
all-season model that plays
a central role in the 86M series. With a length that balances both castability and operability, it supports a wide range of egi sizes from 2.5 to 4, centering on the frequently used 3.5. An almighty model that can be used in a variety of situations, from spring to autumn, from large to small.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 86MH
Spring monster compatible model
86MH is a model that is suitable for spring monsters that use frequently used size 3.5 and size 4. In general, 8.6ft and MH class has an image of being heavy, but it is a model that is light enough to not get tired even after long hours of fishing due to the lightness unique to the AIR series. In addition, the blank itself reduces tension as much as possible and bends supplely, so there is little recoil when jerking, and it is different from a hard rod that is just hard.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 88M-S
Supple semi-long model with a solid tip The
basic design is the same as the classic 86M, but the 88M-S uses a mega top to make the tip more delicate. A big advantage of the solid tip is that it conveys changes in the tide as a slight weight to your hands. Because it supports a wide range of Egi from 2.5 to 4, it is a model that can be used in all seasons like the 86M, but by extending the 2-inch length, the same power has a little flexibility. This rod is recommended for anglers who prefer the feel of a solid tip over a tubular top.

■ EMERALDAS AIR AGS 90M
Supervised by Takayuki Oka

A long model that earns a sharp stroke
The 90M belongs to the long rod category as an egging rod, but its greatest feature is its large vertical movement that makes use of its length. . In addition, the long rod can bring the rod tip closer to the surface of the water even in fishing spots with a high foothold, and can maintain a stable fall posture of the egg even under strong winds. As for the weight, the lightness unique to AIR is alive and well, realizing a feeling of use that does not seem to be 9ft. I would like to use it for anglers who wanted to use a long rod but thought it was too heavy.

 

Features:



■AGS (Air Guide System) A revolutionary carbon guide system that improves flight distance and control performance due to lightness and sensitivity due to the hardness of the carbon frame. By making the guide lighter, the swing speed during casting first increases, so the flight distance is extended. Next, the tip blur converges faster during casting, so cast accuracy increases. In addition, by further enhancing the potential of the original blank, the sensitivity is greatly improved. Even if the same blank is used, when AGS is installed, the action of the lure at the time of retrieval is transmitted more directly than ever, so you can understand the feeling of the lure grasping the tide and the change of the tide more realistically. ■X45 The winding angles of carbon fiber are 0°, 45°, and 90° with respect to the rod tip, respectively, having the maximum elasticity with respect to bending, tsubre and screws. When the angle is set to an intermediate angle like other X structures, the elasticity of each is low, which causes power loss. In addition, a considerable weight increase is required to demonstrate the same power as the “X45” at intermediate angles. The X45, which adopts the three angles with the highest modulus of elasticity, is an optimal structure that prevents deformation of the rod and improves power, operability, and sensitivity (the name was changed from “X Torque” to “X45” as a common trademark worldwide). V-joint A V-joint in which high elastic graphite is staggered and rolled at an angle of 45°. Strain, protrusion, and power loss of the mating part that could not be achieved with conventional joint rods are banished to the extreme. We succeeded in demonstrating the performance closest to one piece. Of course, the vent curve of the entire rod is also infinitely smoother, and it directly conveys the behavior of the sea bass and the action of the lure to the hand. ■ Mega Top It has high strength and rigidity due to the uniform dispersion of fibers and resin, and the sensitivity of the eyes that appear on the tip of the ear is greatly improved compared to the conventional one, as well as the sensitivity that resonates with the hand peculiar to the carbon material. ■HVF Nano Plus “High-density HVF carbon” that reduces the amount of resin, which can be said to be luxurine, and instead increases the density of carbon fiber, is more muscular and powerful. It is the most suitable material for rods that emphasize stickiness and strength, and has been further evolved by nanoplus. * Nano Plus is a technology that enables further enhancement and weight reduction of blanks by optimizing for each model using Daiwa’s original design and manufacturing method to optimize Toray Corporation’s nanoalloy ® technology adaptation materials, which have achieved high performance of resins by mixing multiple types of resins (resins) that play an adhesive-like role in the form of adhesives that form the adhesive that holds together carbon fibers on the nanometer order. ■Air sensor seat (standard trigger) A reel sheet containing carbon fiber that realizes weight reduction, high strength, and high sensitivity. By designing exclusively according to the application, operability that can not be experienced with general-purpose reel sheets is created.
