About this combo
Built specifically for Softbaiting and Medium Casting, this combo pairs a powerful 7' heavy rod with a high-speed Daiwa reel and premium 8-carrier braid — giving serious anglers a balanced, ready-to-fish setup with no guesswork.
Rod: Assassin - Edge II 7' Heavy
The Assassin Edge II in 7' Heavy is engineered for anglers who demand backbone and sensitivity in one package. Its heavy power rating handles large softbaits and absorbs aggressive runs, while the 7' length delivers the casting range needed for open-water presentations. The blank construction keeps you in contact with your lure throughout the retrieve — critical for detecting subtle strikes on the drop.
Reel: Daiwa - 24 REVROS LT4000-CXH
The 24 REVROS LT4000-CXH brings Daiwa's Light & Tough engineering to a workhorse 4000-size body — lightweight without sacrificing durability. The CXH designation means an extra-high gear ratio, delivering fast line pick-up that's ideal for burning softbaits or quickly closing the gap on a running fish. Smooth drag and Daiwa's proven build quality round out a reel that punches well above its price point.
Line: XBRAID - UPGRADE X8 PENTAGRAM
The XBRAID UPGRADE X8 PENTAGRAM is an 8-carrier braid built around a pentagram cross-section for exceptional roundness, smoothness through guides, and consistent casting distance. Its high-tensile construction delivers the low-stretch sensitivity needed to feel every movement of a softbait, while the tight weave resists abrasion in demanding conditions — a strong match for both inshore and open-water applications.
Together, these three components form a cohesive, technique-matched setup for anglers targeting quality fish on softbaits and medium casting rigs. Grab yours and hit the water ready.
