About this combo
Built specifically for casting stickbaits and poppers at hard-fighting pelagics like kingfish and tuna, this combo pairs an extra-heavy topwater rod with a high-speed spinning reel and performance braid — everything you need, ready to fish.
Rod: Assassin - Affinity 11XH Topwater Rod
The Assassin Affinity 11XH is purpose-built for long-range topwater presentations. The extra-heavy power rating handles the brutal runs of large kingfish and tuna, while the length maximises casting distance with large stickbaits and poppers. A fast action blank loads up quickly for explosive casts and delivers the backbone needed to turn powerful pelagics away from structure.
Reel: Daiwa - 26 FREAMS LT5000D-CXH
The 2026 Daiwa FREAMS LT5000D-CXH brings Daiwa's LT (Light & Tough) concept to a body built to handle serious pelagics. The CXH designation means an extra-high gear ratio, delivering fast line recovery to keep pace with aggressive topwater retrieves and sudden strikes. Deep spool capacity handles the heavy braid required for kingfish and tuna fishing with confidence.
Line: Atomic - Linez Braid 8X Multi Colour
Atomic Linez 8X Multi Colour braid is an 8-carrier construction offering exceptional roundness, strength, and sensitivity — critical when working surface lures at distance. The multi-colour coding gives precise depth and distance awareness on every cast. Zero stretch ensures instant hooksets on crushing topwater strikes, and the tight weave resists wind knots under load.
Three components engineered for the same mission — this combo is ideal for anglers targeting kingfish and tuna on surface lures. Add it to your cart and fish ready.
