Fishing With The DAIWA PRESSO Travel Ultralight!
Рет қаралды 62,729
2 жыл бұрынThe Daiwa Presso 4-piece Travel Ultralight is a fantastic rod which I have been using for quite a while now. I have hooked and landed tons of fish (tiny, big, and everything in between) so I wanted to document my thoughts on this rod in a video.

The main thing I like about the Daiwa Presso Travel Ultralight is how well it fishes for being a 4-piece rod. When you fish with it, it is hard to notice that it isn't a standard one-piece rod. It is light, sensitive, and comfortable to fish with yet you get the versatility of being able to take it with you wherever you go.

Quick tip for multi piece rod assembly. They often don't have markers to align the rod. Put it together, use a paint marker and draw a colored dot to mark alignment

Thought I recognized that lake! My dad took me there when I was like 10 years old and we caught 2 14 inch yellow perch somewhere like a few hundred feet south of where you're standing, which still holds the record for the largest perch I've ever caught to date! Ahh the memories. On another note, if you find yourself in the area in April (or around there), try bringing your canoe/yak out on the southern most launch. If memory serves correctly, straight out and to the left slightly there is a fairly deep (8 ft?) area with a bunch of weeds and lily pads sprouting, you can kind of see if on Google Maps if you look close enough. Throw some minnows on a bobber in there a few feet down and you can catch yourself a bunch of pretty good sized pike really fast. You'll likely find that you're the only one out there as well. The park gets crowded in the summer months, but in early/mid spring it's empty as can be.

I liked my first so much I just received my second of the 6'6" version. I normally go with two-piece rods, but I like the action of this in four pieces so much with the balance paired with a Lew's TLC2000 that I went for two. I'd rate it as a light more than an ultralight - but that's fine with 8# braid with a 6# fluro. leader. One for jigs and one with a swivel for spinners/micro plugs and I figure I'll be in kayak heaven for smallmouth and perch.

I had to put the heat on the floor to keep my toes warm. I wish my toes wasn't so wide & being straight across. Maybe I could find a shoe to wear for the winter so I clearly understand about the coldness. But I'm glad you still got out there and fish even though it's cold & you still got some fish so that made a good cold day.

I would say it depends on the size of the fish you think you'll be catching. If the trout are 8-12" or so, the UL will be perfect. But if you think there is a chance of catching more fish in the 15-18" range, you might want to step it up to a L.

I suggest you look at the reel's weight also. I find that proper balance is crucial to my experience. I put a 500 on a 6-6 rod, and the combo was tip-heavy. That same 500 on a different rod was superb. There is also a fair bit of variance among reel manufacturers when it comes to assigning numbers to various reel models.
@FishAnything 2 жыл бұрын
Good points! I tend to like the 1000 because of the shallower spool that is wider. I find that smaller spools lead to a lot more line issues so I’ve been very pleased with 1000. Additionally, they seem to balance most of my rods very comfortably. Been meaning to try a few 500 reels though.

Is it durable or do you need to baby it?
@FishAnything 2 жыл бұрын
It has held up to a lot of random big fish. I haven't ever felt the need to baby it.

They are solid rods! I had the 7-foot 2pc rod before but I didn't like it as much as this one. This thing kicks butt!

@@FishAnything You're a fun little fishing trip. 🤣😂 Nice content man. Gonna pick up a Shakespeare micro because of you. I saw it in Walmart before I watched your video, and it looked tasty, but I couldn't pull the trigger. "Well, that's almost too good to be true", I thought pensively. WELL, IT WASN'T!!!!!!!! 🙃
