Daiwa 23 Infeet EX Rods

The Daiwa 23 Infeet EX series represents the pinnacle of Daiwa’s Australian finesse and estuary rod development, purpose-built for anglers chasing the highest levels of sensitivity, balance and technical lure performance across modern light tackle fishing applications.

Designed specifically for Australian estuary and finesse fishing techniques, the Infeet EX range combines Daiwa’s most advanced rod technologies with highly refined tapers and technique-specific actions to create one of the most responsive and lightweight lure rod platforms in the country.

At the core of the range is Daiwa’s premium SVF Compile-X Nanoplus blank construction — the same advanced graphite technology found in Daiwa’s flagship TD Battler AGS series. By dramatically reducing excess resin content while increasing graphite density, the blanks achieve exceptional lightweight sensitivity and blank responsiveness without sacrificing lifting strength or durability.

Further enhancing overall blank performance is Daiwa’s X45X Full Shield technology, which dramatically reduces blank twist during casting and under load. The result is an incredibly crisp and controlled blank feel that improves casting precision, lure responsiveness and overall fishing feel during technical finesse applications.

One of the standout features of the 23 Infeet EX series is the introduction of Daiwa’s innovative ZERO SEAT spinning reel seat system. Manufactured from an ultra-light carbon-infused resin material, the ZERO SEAT significantly reduces overall rod weight while improving ergonomics and in-hand comfort when paired with lightweight finesse reels. The streamlined reel seat profile creates a highly connected and refined feel throughout the retrieve.

The guide system has also been carefully engineered to maximise blank performance and sensitivity. Fuji Titanium-framed SiC stripper guides are used through the lower section to improve line control and casting efficiency, while ultra-light Daiwa AGS carbon fibre guides are used through the upper section to reduce tip weight and dramatically improve sensitivity and blank recovery.

Select models within the range also feature Daiwa’s advanced MEGATOP solid tip technology. The solid graphite tip design improves bite detection and lure presentation while exerting minimal resistance against timid fish, making these models exceptionally effective for finesse plastics, light hardbodies and subtle estuary presentations where bite sensitivity is critical.

Designed around modern Australian finesse fishing applications, the Infeet EX range excels across soft plastics, hardbodies, vibration baits and finesse topwater techniques. Whether targeting bream around structure, flathead on shallow flats, bass in impoundments or estuary perch along rockwalls, the rods deliver elite-level lure control and exceptional finesse fishing performance.

Built specifically for serious Australian estuary and light tackle anglers, the Daiwa 23 Infeet EX series stands as one of the most technically advanced finesse rod ranges Daiwa has ever produced.
