More Daiwa Goodies

Daiwa Australia updated its website.

Of particular note to me was the New Luvias at:
http://www.daiwafishing.com.au/index...product=luvius

and the Saltist Light Rock Fish Game rods at:
http://www.daiwafishing.com.au/index...oduct=rockfish

Hehe, I tried to order one of the Saltist rods from HK, but they (whoever in Japan) didn't have stock in Japan.
The MRRP for this lineup of rods is ~30,000yen, so I'll be interested what they are sold for here. Maybe something to replace the Saegake, maybe not.

And I would question on the Luvias' specs, particularly a 2BB supported knob and Hyper Tournament Drag. Daiwa JP made a correction a week or 2 back saying the knobs aren't bearing supported, and the reel only has Tournament Drag. Maybe the changes just haven't filtered down.
