The Shimano Talavera Boat D spinning rod is the redesigned D-generation boat rod. Match the full model code and reel type when comparing it with older Talavera rods or the separate Inshore series.
The redesigned D series uses DIAFLASH carbon-tape reinforcement in the lower blank, Fuji O guides, a Fuji reel seat and Shimano’s ergonomic V Hold grip. These one-piece, Fast-action rods cover inshore and light offshore techniques.
