Thanks...I was looking at a Daiwa TD Saltwater/Sol or T-curve 6-10kg spin for soft plastics.
Hoping to pair it with either Stradic/Sustain 4000 or Sol 4000.
The 7' spin looks like a value altrnative!!

FWA 7ft Rod Specs;
Ryan was using the same Daiwa Saltwater series rods before he designed these rods. The 7ft FWA model is his favourite with the versatility and ideal for SP work.
The Stradic 5000 is the same size as the 4000 but with a deeper spool to hold more line, ideal for the 7ft rod.
The 7ft FWA model specs; EVA fore & rear grip for comfort when fighting bigger fish & very durable. Rear grip length is approx 23cm with a soft EVA rod butt for cushioning when fighting bigger fish. Japanese high performance graphite blank with SG SIC guides.

FWA 9ft spin
The cast weight is ideal for 30-60 grams (max 70g), very nice rod indeed especially for throwing lures and "lighter weighted" lures.
Suits metals/SP/stickbaits & one of our favourites in the range for sure.

do the PE1-3 & PE3-5 jig rods
do the PE1-3 & PE3-5 jig rods also come in a spin model?
yeah the 9' spin is very appealing for the upcoming salmon season.

Spin jig rods...
No, they're not available at the moment.
Yes the 9ft spin will be very popular among the lure chuckers. Incredibly lightweight and very responsive casting action.

carbon/graphite?the title
carbon/graphite?
the title says graphite but the write up says carbon fibre (made of "high quality Japanese carbon fibre")
are some carbon fibre and some graphite or is it just an error.

carbon or graphite....
Graphite is a very general term for the type of material used on the blank. Carbon fibre is the actual raw material used to make the sheets before its rolled on a mandrel to create a blank. So really either is still the same.
