With the Megaforce Catfish series, DAIWA offers a very successful, durable and affordable series for catfish fishing - especially when fishing for large fish, you always have to be able to rely on your device
The strong blanks and the equipment of the Megaforce Catfish rods made of HMC+ carbon fibre withstand the loads of uncompromising catfish drills and offer optimal handling
