17ft / 5.15m Daiwa Rod (Inter-IL-PROGRAND-4-52-ENTO) - 72% HVF Carbon, made in Japan
5.15 meters Daiwa InterLine rod IL PROGRAND 4-52 ENTO is a very powerful sencitive rod corresponding to
Fukase fishing from shore wave with an excellent High-level capabilities. Rod designed with the latest
revolutionary technology utilize the incredible
High volume fibre carbon, produce a fine diameter
blank that resists twisting, eliminating blank stress, creating better casting accuracy, smoother drag
pressure and greater hook setting power. Technology includes durable
water-repellent inner dry
processing, when water droplets inside the rod contact blank at 165 degrees angle and easy roll down
with drainage performance.
The guideless blank allows for longer casts, superior action and the strength to overtake hard-fighting
species. The reel seat is located closer to the bottom which makes the perfect balance. Rod bends evenly, no
stress points provides maximum blank strength, it has 360 degree axially symmetric completely tangle free
tip which provides equal performance at any angle.
Linear Interline guide structure
with the line runs inside the blank, is integrated inside the blank, the blanks true action is optimized, no
tangles, no guide breakages, even line control with convenient no tangling storage.
Line is distributed evenly along the entire spiral structure, decreasing torque, providing smoother
retrieves, friction free casting and ultra smooth drag pressure. Decreasing line contact and drag thus
increasing cast distance and accuracy by drawing water off the line and keeping the line centred in the rod.
By increasing the amount of spirals and deceasing the spiral peak, interline rods have become inherently
more sensitive.

The advantage of using this rod is to eliminate the tangles to guide, feel more relaxing, being able to
have a comfortable fishing with no trouble from the shore or beach. The guideless blanks resist twisting,
eliminate blank stress, help to cast longer with better casting accuracy. Smoother drag pressure, greater
action and maximum blank strength help to overtake hard-fighting species. Rod bends evenly, provides no
stress points, the location of reel seat closer to the bottom makes perfect balance.

Daiwa rod technology used in IL PROGRAND 4-52 ENTO to support and maximize the linear interline fishing
method
super water-repellent dry.
Water droplets inside the rod contact blank at 165 degrees angle and is easy to roll down with drainage
performance. Dropping the water to the water-repellent surface is rejected even the water droplets are
scattered informal small. Out of the concept of playing the water longer, water-repellent performance of
high level water droplets do not touch little inner rod. It is possible even droplets's combined linear
structure and the water repellency were repelled from the rod inner surface together with the line by
"superhydrophobic dry" (by drawing water off the line) it is discharged at once making the long cast
very smoothly.
The Linear Interline structure.
The linear structure refers to the structure material, inner surface becomes spiral. The structure
allows line runs inside the rod blank instead of guideswhich reduce the stickiness. In addition, because
it does not strung film of water between the inside lines and release of smooth yarn is possible.
Decreasing line contact and drag thus increasing cast distance and accuracy by drawing water off the
line and keeping the line centred in the rod.
Large-diameter high-foot guide.
The biggest disadvantages of guided rod is difficulty to getting out line through guides solved by
"large-diameter high-foot guide" further of this guideless rod. The line goes inside the "linear
structure", "durable water-repellent" and can be operated as you wish, 360 degree axially symmetric
equal performance at any angle. Large diameter foot high entrance guide will allow to release the line
smoothly with least resistance. You can enjoy fishing comfortably in any weather, even in windy and
rainy conditions.
Grip leather satin end.
Daiwa developed a grip leather satin finish that is hard to slip in the hand, that reduce the Mochiomori
feeling, and does not have fatique even if they hold it a long period of time. There is an advantage in
that it is difficult to put a burden on hand at the time of exchange as well as to reduce the
Mochiomori. With small weight increases the total balance is greatly improved by the synergistic effect.
Easy operation.
The line go inside through the guides located inside the rods. The rods is special designed With carbon
thread inside to make sure the line go smoothly and will not touch the rods side tightly. Ensure the line
will not scratch with the rods. The steel wire is for help the line go inside.
1. Sets the reel, to extend well above the original. One looped side connect with the
line.
2. Another site insert into the rods guide and pull wire straight through the tip top, until
it is passed through to entrance guide.
3. It passed through a Michi-ito the tip of the wire that came out of the entrance guide.
4. When the fishing line go out of the tip guide disconnect the line and the wire. Pulled out
the wire from the top and store it for future use.
As well as convenience of threading, this is one of the technology of Daiwa can realize the ideal of tone
in a compact put away.

Interline Technology
Smooth bending curve - Interline rods bend evenly, no stress points provides maximum blank strength,
unlike guided rods which create an uneven segmented curve with high stress points.
360 degree axially symmetric tip - completely tangle free and provides equal performance at any
angle, standard tip guides tangle easily and to get full performance they must be used at the same direction
as the line.
No external weight - normal guides add weight, thus the action of the blank is degraded, Interlines
guide structure is integrated inside the blank, and no external weight means the blanks true action is
achieved.
Torque free - the line is located inside the blank, no guides to provide torque stress points,
with many contact points torque and friction is reduced, normal external guides create high friction and
torque reducing the life of the blank.
Linear Interline raised spirals - line is distributed evenly along the entire spiral structure,
providing smoother retrieves and ultra smooth drag pressure.
No guides - no tangles, no guide breakages, even line control with convenient no tangling
storage.
Extremely high sensitivity - with up to 200 linear contact points directly onto highly sensitive
carbon, Interlines are inherently more sensitive compared to standard rods, guides are made of materials
that absorb vibration "dulling" line sensitivity.
No slack line - standard guided rods can have up to 30 cm's of slack line due to the segmented guide
distribution whereas interline provides completely even line distribution, even the subtlest of bites are
felt and strikes are instantaneous.

- Do not use any substitute materials or wire instead of wire designed to operate with this rod.
- Do not kink, bend abruptly or otherwise abuse the threading wire. It could damage the rod.
- Always use the recommended knots for connecting leaders.
- Do not brush inside; this may damage the inside of the rod.
- Accumulated water can be removed by whipping the rod.
- After use rinse out the inside and exterior of the rod with freshwater and whip the rod to remove
excess water. Allow to dry before storage.
- Do not apply oil or lubricant to the inside of the rod as this will impedeline flow.
- Never lift your catch.
- Always open and close
telescopic rod with a special care.
Back to top
Interline rods are highly suited to braid and PE lines, these lines require monofilament leaders and thus
leader knots. For optimal performance Interline knots require ultra slim knots for easy line flow. Common
leader knots like Twisted Leader Knots and Double Uni's are sufficient but the PE Leader Connection knot
for connecting leaders to braided lines for maximum interline performance is suited best. For maximum knot
strength apply a quick dry super glue to the knot.
Be careful
- Knots are unnecessary and may interfere with smooth threading.
- If resistance occurs do not force through. Simply remove and start again.
- Tip section has small diameter and leader knots can get entrapped inside the blank. For larger
leaders keep the leader knot outside the blank.
- Entrapped knots or line can damage the tip section.
