Comments about Daiwa Daiwa Wilderness Trolling Rods:

I've fished with $300+ rods and can't justify the price. These rods do very well and if I snap the tip off not an expesive loss. I don't like the guides and would prefer stainless guides. All of this type of guide (insert guide) fall apart.

I use these rods and will again.

Comments about Daiwa Daiwa Wilderness Trolling Rods:

Brought to try to compare with the Heartland line of medium heavy trolling rods. I actually like the rod action of these rods trolling kwik fish from a drift boat going downriver. The tip telegraphs the action of the lure quite well and has the action and toughest to easily handle a 30 pound plus king salmon. Additionally, the very low rod price makes it so I not concerned about breaking the rods and I have purchased two rods each of the 8, 8 1/2, 9 and 9 1/2 foot for myself and my friends have also purchased at least two in various lengths. Good deal and I couldn't be any happier with my purchase decisions.
