Saltwater Travel Rods

Built for the angler who never stops moving, the Daiwa Ardito TR 5-Piece Travel Surf Spinning Rod delivers full-size surf performance in a compact, packable design. Daiwa's proprietary X45 carbon fiber construction eliminates blank twist under load, giving you tighter loops, longer casts, and more precise presentations — even when you're fishing a beach you flew to get to.

Fitted with a Fuji® Aluminum Oxide 'Low Rider' guide train, the Ardito TR handles braid and mono with equal confidence. Whether you're chasing stripers on the East Coast, surfperch on the Pacific, or corvina in Baja, this rod packs down small and performs big.
