Daiwa OG Tatula vs. Tatula Elite (Howell and Feider ML)

Post by Big-Bass » Mon Feb 19, 2018 6:47 am

I have an opportunity to get an Daiwa Tatula 7' ML casting rod for like $108 shipped online and it seems to me that the rods have almost identical specs to some of the newer Tatula Elite rods. How much difference is there between the regular Tatula vs. the Elites in the ML versions (Howell and Feider)? Aside from the full vs. split grips, the specs for the rods look very similar. Would the 7' ML work well for smaller cranks, jerkbaits (up to 110s), and smaller spinnerbaits? Thanks for your help!

The elites are SVF graphite much more sensitive rod that the OG Tatula.
Either would be great but the Elite rods are better. Used the both

there is two different types of SVF
from my understanding standard SVF then there is the Nanoplus SVF and the Elites in my opinion are more sensitive than the regular Tatulas
