If they are the ones I'm thinking of they did 13ft extreme range model. A mate bought four and snapped three of them on his first session using them in France.

Are you sure Guru rods are still made by Daiwa ? I was told this was how korda and daiwa had a falling out as Guru sourced there blanks abroad as of 2021.

Money talks doesn't it. Bet Danny has lined Tels pockets to wrench him away from Daiwa.

Dont know as of from'21

But still says it on their website 1st paragraph

Aventus 10ft Feeder
The shortest rod in the Aventus range, and an incredibly popular length for all kinds of fishing. Made to Tackle Guru specifications by Daiwa in the renowned UK facilities using the highest quality Japanese carbon and most up-to-date rod technology.


Maybe they will have their top end rod made in UK and the other in one of Daiwas other factories to keep costs down ???

I see in the new Gigantica Korda vlog Mr Fairbrass has some rods with 'Kaizen' down the side of the blank, perhaps the new big water rod in the line?

Must have good eyesight. I paused it aswell to see if I could make out a name. Definately began with a K from what I could make out..

Was more interested in the Net to be honest. Looked solidly built. Metal spreader block nice bow Might even be a reversed tapered handle with a spike on the end. Some net handles are to flexy. You have to compress them fully before you can lift the net around the fish.

i noticed that, logo on the left and right hand side of the blank, perfect for camera shots of the rods when fish being played or on the buzzers. Look pretty fast taper by the way they bent...or lack of bend with big fish

I remember him playing a 60lb carp on a 3.75lb infinity in one of his videos and he said how lovely the rod was to play a fish on and only the top 12 inches of the rod were bent.

Yeah definitely said Kaizen on the side of the rod when he was playing a fish on them. Also noticed that the reels had all branding removed.

I asked Terry Edmonds on a recent casting day and he said he couldn't say but i wasn't a million miles off in thinking new rods were on the horizon
